For Breeder Blum, a Classic Win Generations in Making

National Treasure is a sixth-generation colt bred by Peter Blum.

In a way, breeder Peter Blum predicted National Treasure ‘s 2023 Preakness Stakes (G1) win some seven years ago.

After starting his homebred daughter of Medaglia d’Oro, Treasure, a couple of times from 2014-2016, Blum opted to retire the mare to the care of Bridie Harrison at Hurricane Place farm near Cynthiana, Ky.

“I had a feeling,” Blum said. “I remember telling Bridie years ago, ‘This is the one.’ A few minutes after the Preakness, Bridie called to congratulate me and we recalled that conversation.”
