Classic Empire, Meet
Tiznow, Broad Brush,
and Fu Peg
by Steve Haskin
It’s hard enough to train a
Thoroughbred and be able to bring
out their talents. But when they
have a mind of their own and keep
fighting you, it makes the task
extremely difficult and taxing on
the nerves. To borrow a line from
the movie A Bronx Tale, “The saddest thing in life is wasted talent.”
The question right now with
Classic Empire as the Kentucky
Derby draws closer is whether his
immense talent is going to be
wasted. We have seen what he is
capable of in the Bashford Manor
Stakes, Breeders’ Futurity and
Breeders’ Cup Juvenile. His classy
victories in those three races
earned him an Eclipse Award as
champion 2-year-old male. But we
also saw what he is capable of
when those gremlins inside his
head surface, as they did at the
start of the Hopeful Stakes when
he suddenly wheeled, unseating
his jockey as the 8-5 favorite.
And we saw them surface again
this year when he misbehaved on
the van ride to Gulfstream for the
Holy Bull Stakes, sweated up in
the post parade, and acted up and
became ornery at the gate. And
we’ve seen it when he flat out
refused to work on two occasions,
causing him to miss valuable
training. Trainer Mark Casse, who
has also had to deal with the colt’s
foot abscess and back problem,
finally had to resort to sending
him to, of all places, Winding Oaks
Training Center in Ocala, where he

Tiznow began to show off his
quirks as a 4-year-old, and, ironically, he also refused to work at
times and also suffered from a
back problem that was a lot more
serious than what ailed Classic
Empire. But that eventually was
taken care of, and the goal with
him all year was an unprecedented repeat victory in the Breeders’

Casse isn’t the first trainer to have
to deal with a temperamental
Thoroughbred who does things
only when he wants to and wants
no part of them at other times.

faster and faster, as McCarron had
to scramble to get his feet back in
the stirrups. This could be it.
Tiznow broke into a gallop, and
then at the half-mile pole he just
took off, flying around the track.
McCarron let him go from the half
to the half for a full mile work. At
one point on the far turn, Tiznow
pricked his ears and began looking
at the gap, and all McCarron could
say was, “Oh no you don’t.”
Tiznow completed the mile in a
sizzling 1:35 3/5. He was ready to
head to New York.
All seemed good after he arrived
at Belmont. New Yorkers were still
in shock, trying to come to terms
with the cataclysmic events of
9/11, and a pall still hung over the
city and Belmont Park. Tiznow,
who had been stuck in New York
unable to return home after the
Woodward Stakes, grazed contentedly after arriving at Shug
McGaughey’s barn, then picked his
head up and stared at the grandstand off in the distance after
hearing the faint voice of track
announcer Tom Durkin calling a
race. His eyes widened and he
stood like a statue, with his ears
cocked. It wasn't until the race
was over and all was again quiet
that he returned to grazing. He
then was led into his new stall,
took a roll in the wood shavings,
and settled in to his new home for
the week. So far so good.
But this moment of bliss would be
short-lived. The following morning, Robbins showed up, not
knowing what to expect from his
temperamental star. Much to his
dismay, he would soon find out.
Tiznow went out for his clockwise
jog around the track just after the
renovation break and immediately

turned into a one-horse wrecking
crew, balking, kicking, back-peddling, and side-stepping his way
around the track. As he walked
off, Robbins told exercise rider
Ramon Arciga to bring him back
on and go around again. “I’m
either gonna confuse him or confuse myself,” he said. Tiznow was
better the second time around,
but down the backstretch, he lost
it again, and scooted backwards
across the width of the track. An
outrider finally had to grab the colt
and escort him back.
Robbins went out later that day to
buy a bottle of vodka to give to
Tiznow to help calm him down. It
was a practice that had been used
by some trainers in the past. But it
was Sunday and all the liquor
stores were closed, so Robbins
was on his own.
He decided to change the colt's
schedule, sending him out before
the break, when there was much
less traffic, and having him go
counterclockwise for a change. It
seemed to work. Accompanied by
McGaughey’s exercise rider Pam
York and her pony, Andy, Tiznow
improved each day. Robbins,
watching from the trainer's stand
one morning, crossed both his fingers as Tiznow ambled calmly
around the track. His gallops got
stronger, and by late week, he was
tearing over the track with the
same power and authority as he
had the year before at Churchill
Downs. We all know what happened after that, as Tiznow won
the Classic “for America,” as
Durkin called it, battling back from
certain defeat to nose out
Godolphin’s runaway Prix de l’Arc
de Triomphe winner Sakhee.

then proceeded to devour the
scalding mixture without even
flinching.
“He’s incredible,” Small said. “Half
the horses in this race wouldn’t
eat anything right after a race, but
he doesn’t even wait for it to cool
off. He’s so tough and durable.
He’s made of the right stuff. I’ve
never been around a horse like
this.”
It was funny listening to Small
describe a horse as being tough
and durable and made of the right
stuff. This is someone who used to
go out on suicide missions in
Vietnam while serving with the
Green Berets.
Broad Brush was unlike any horse
I have ever been around. When it
came to sheer toughness, he was
in a class by himself. He thrived on
work and could not get enough of
it. Small said the horse knew
exactly when the track opened in
the morning, and if he wasn't the
first one out there “you couldn't
deal with him.” The day after the
1987 Preakness, the Pimlico track
was closed for clean-up and Small
had to van the then 4-year-old
Broad Brush to Laurel just to gallop. In the winter of 1986, prior to
the General George Stakes at
Pimlico, all the Maryland tracks
were frozen on the day Broad
Brush was scheduled to work.
Small put the colt on a van and
drove him to his father’s farm,
where he worked him up a snow
bank. Three days later, Broad
Brush won the General George.

but two days later, to the amazement of Small, the injury was
completely healed.
He loved riding in vans and Small
would often just take him for rides
around the Maryland countryside
to alleviate any boredom. In his
14 starts at 3, Broad Brush raced
at Pimlico, Laurel, Latonia,
Aqueduct,
Churchill
Downs,
Thistledown, Canterbury Downs,
Monmouth, Saratoga, Philadelphia
Park, and Meadowlands, and
vanned to every race but one, logging 5,000 miles on the road.
The only problem Broad Brush
caused Small in the mornings was
his unwillingness to gallop or work
long distances by himself. He
thrived on competition and loved
running alongside other horses. If
Small sent him out by himself he
would get bored and start playing
around. Unfortunately, Small had
no colts who could gallop with
Broad Brush without getting
knocked out for a week. Small
said he just “overpowered and
intimidated them. It was like they
went through the wringer.”
Fortunately, Small had a claiming
filly named Flow and Flux who had
no speed, but was so tough and
had so much stamina, she could
gallop with Broad Brush and stand
up to the pressure. Small had
gone through a number of horses
until he lucked out finding her. She
became Broad Brush's galloping
companion and traveled with him
everywhere, including California in
1987, when he made three separate trips there, culminating with a
heart-pounding nose victory over
Ferdinand in the Santa Anita
Handicap. Flow and Flux became
so valuable to Small he couldn't

Moments later, the pair came
rolling by once again, still at a
strong gallop and still eyeball to
eyeball. Any other horse in Small’s
barn would take several days to
recover from such a gallop, but
Flow and Flux did it every day for
a year and a half.
“She’s got so much guts and
heart, damned if I know where
she gets it,” Small said. “She has
one lick but she can carry it five
miles. They’ve become real buddies. It’s like a human runner who
likes to have a friend along to talk
to.”
Finally we come to Broad Brush's
most infamous moment -- his
you-had-to-see-it-to-believe-it
victory in the Pennsylvania Derby,
in which he not only bolted all the
way to the outside fence nearing
the quarter pole over a very sloppy track, he headed directly
toward it at full speed, looking as
if he were going to either crash
into it or jump over it. It was only
the frantic waving by the track
veterinarian standing at the rail
that prevented Broad Brush from
winding up in the picnic area and
jockey Angel Cordero from bailing
out, which he was ready to do.
Broad Brush quickly straightened
himself out, angled back in, and
miraculously came charging down
the middle of the track to win the
race.
All through the years we have
seen horses with minds of their
own. Another such a horse was
Fusaichi Pegasus. Here was an
amazingly talented horse who had
sold for $4 million as a yearling.
But he had his mental issues. He
was high strung and unpredictable, doing what was asked of

him only when he felt like it and
rearing without warning or provocation.
Right before the Wood Memorial,
as the horses circled behind the
gate preparing to load, one horse
was missing. Binoculars scoured
the entire Aqueduct stretch in
search of the bright red and yellow
silks of Fusaichi Pegasus’ owner
Fusao Sekiguchi. But they were
nowhere to be found.
Finally, off in the distance, near
the five-sixteenths pole, the colt
was spotted standing like the
proverbial statue, his feet planted
firmly on the ground. “Come on,
big boy, we gotta go,” jockey
Kentucky Desormeaux pleaded to
no avail. The Wood Memorial at
that moment was the furthest
thing from Fusaichi Pegasus’
mind. His only interest seemed to
be checking out all the buses and
cars in the parking lot.
In an attempt to get the colt’s
mind back on the race, one of the
members of the gate crew ran up
the stretch, grabbed hold of the
bridle, and tried to coax him into
going by running alongside him.
That worked until the colt decided
to stop near the eighth pole and
gawk at the crowd. By the time
the outrider showed up to lend his
assistance, Fusaichi Pegasus was
ready for action, and obligingly
jogged alongside the pony right to
the gate, where he proceeded to
walk in as if nothing had happened. About a minute and 47
seconds later, he was coasting
past the finish line an easy winner.
But following the race, once again
there was no sign of the horse, as
