Jaipur was born in 1959 and won the Belmont Stakes in 1962. He received the Eclipse Award for Outstanding 3 year-old Male Horse. He started 19 times, won 10 and placed 6. His lifetime earnings were $618,926. He not only won the Belmont, but also the Withers, and Travers Stakes at Saratoga Race Track. This latter race was voted by Blood Horse as one of the top moments in racing history. They wrote about it in their 2006 book Horse Racing's Top 100 Moments. Jaipur won by a fraction of a nose over Ridan in track record time! His jockey was the world famous Willie Shoemaker. He is the son of Nasrullah out of Rare Perfume, Damsire of Eight-Thirty. He's also the great-great-grandpa on the dam side of Violet's dam! Violet's family is so accomplished -- what a lucky beautiful fast girl. I'll write about her Dosage Index in an upcoming Blog!
