WALLENDA 1990 dkb/br h by Gulch - So Glad by Liloy 33 Starts: 7 - 5 - 5,    $1,205,929 History:  When our flying Wallenda arrived from Japan, his homecoming was fueled by hundreds of fans.  Anchored by a substantial contribution from Cot and Anne Campbell of Dogwood Stable, this Grade I winning son of Gulch out of So Glad (ARG) was welcomed by hundreds of supporters.  Named after the high wire performer, Karl Wallenda, this magnificent Thoroughbred was most famous for winning the Grade I Super Derby and Grade II Pennsylvania Derby in 1993.  This tall, dark and handsome stud has captured the imagination of thousands of fans since his return to the U.S.  Bred in Florida by Peter Brant and Haras Santa Maria, he campaigned wearing the distinctive Dogwood silks for trainer Frank Alexander and jockey Herb McCauley.  Wallenda earned $1,205,929 in just 33 lifetime starts.  Special thanks to Dogwood’s Mary Jane Howell who visited Kiri’s Clown and asked about Wallenda.  Because of her, he is here.  We are honored to welcome him home.
