Louisiana Derby Winning Relatives

As I sit here at Fair Grounds in New Orleans eagerly waiting for today’s Louisiana Derby, I’d like to acknowledge three of our J is for Justify horses who had relatives who won the big race. Secretariat’s son Risen Star won in 1988, Xtra Heat’s sire Dixieland Heat won in 1993, and Unbridled’s son Grindstone won in 1996.
