Beautiful and well-worn, this halter belonged to Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner Real Quiet. Nicknamed "The Fish," he was four inches away from winning the Triple Crown losing the Belmont by the smallest margin ever. Collection comes from the controller of the Darby Dan Farm in Lexington, Ky. LOA included.
This lot is from the personal collection of the late Tracie Willis. Although Ms. Willis was controller at Darby Dan Farms, this nor any other lot in this auction comes from or is associated with Darby Dan Farms.
