Bold 'n Determined (1977–1997), was an American Thoroughbred race horse born and bred in Kentucky. Her dam was the unraced mare Pidi, by Determine. Determine won the 1954 Kentucky Derby. Her sire was Bold And Brave by the great Bold Ruler. She is inbred 4x4 to the great English stallion Pharos. Owned by Corbin Robertson's Saron Stable and trained by Neil Drysdale, Bold ‘n Determined won her first four races at two, including the Oak Leaf Stakes. Out of her twenty starts, she won 16 and placed in two, with six of her wins coming in Grade I stakes events. Ridden most by Hall of Fame jockey Eddie Delahoussaye, Bold ‘n Determined competed on both coasts, winning virtually all of her races. In 1980, at the age of three, she took the Acorn Stakes and the Coaching Club American Oaks, which are two of the three races comprising the New York Filly Triple Crown. She also won the equivalent of the Kentucky Derby for females: the Kentucky Oaks. That year, a filly won the Kentucky Derby, the great Genuine Risk...only the second member of her sex to do so since Regret had won it in 1915. Genuine Risk also placed in the Preakness Stakes and the Belmont Stakes. But in the Maskette Stakes (now called the Go For Wand Handicap), Bold ‘n Determined beat Genuine Risk by a nose. In that race, she also beat the Hall of Fame filly Davona Dale, American Champion Three-Year-Old Filly of 1979. At four, Bold 'n Determined took the Bewitch Stakes and the Apple Blossom Handicap, spotting her rivals 4 to 13 pounds, but began to experience problems with her ankles. The decision was made to retire her from racing before anything worse could happen. In 1980, she was runner-up to Genuine Risk in the Eclipse Awards for American Champion Three-Year-Old Filly. In 1997, the year of her death, she was inducted into the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame. Bold ‘n Determined spent her broodmare career at Gainsborough Farm in Kentucky. On July 1, 1997, she was quietly put to sleep due to the complications of “founder” or laminitis. ==References== * ( Bold ‘n Determined’ pedigree, stats, and photo ) * (Bold ‘n Determined in the Hall of Fame, with video of her win in the Maskette ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bold 'n Determined」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
