won. And If victorious gray
horses go in cycles, 1t would be
this year-or for many years to
come.
It was back in the Gay Nine
ties-l695-when the first gray
won the Preakness. He was a
long forgotten colt named Bel
mar and was ridden by Fred
Taral. q name which might
strike a chord with some senior
citizens.
Belmar's winning Preakness
might have been buried forever
except for one Of Pimlico,s
former publicity directors -
David Woods - who more thar
10 years ago discovered is
missing Preaknesses.
The enterprising Woods un-
earthed them at the abandoned
Gravesend track in New York
where they were run while
Pimlico was shut down from
1889 until 1904.
=
1t was So years after Belmar's
victory before another gray
horse was draped with the
Black Eyed Susans. The year
was 1858 and, of course, it was
Alfred @. Vanderbilt's Native
Dancer.
Due to the skimpy records
in the early days of the race,
it is impossible to determine
how many grays have gone to
the post in the Preakness, but
whatever the number, the per-
centage Of winning grays can
not be too high.
Native Dancer was not af-
fected by the jinx, If it could
be called that. After being
beaten in the Derby, he won
the Preakness and started a
winning streak that stopped
only when he was retired.
Decidedly, who is favored to
become the second gray horse
to win a Preakness on the Pim-
leo grounds, would like to du-
plicate The Dancers streak.
