No Rain No Rainbow
Horse: No Rain No Rainbow
Pedigree:Â View
No Rain No Rainbow is a 3 year old gelding by Unbridled Energy. Â He is the last foal of Snappy Little Tune, the best race horse I ever trained. She was a multiple stakes winner of almost $400,000. Â She won allowances races at Keeneland, Churchill Downs, Turfway, etc. Â She posted Beyer speed figures of 100+ on multiple occasions. Â She won from 5.5 furlongs to 1&1/16 miles. Â She was 2nd on the turf twice, once beaten a nose at Keeneland & once “against the boys” at Churchill. Â All of her foals have been winners at the track, including Snappy Little Cat who was 3rd in the $100,000 Bassinet Stakes.
The Name:
I never expected that this would be Snappy Little Tune’s last foal, but she died later that year. Â Months later when watching ESPN a Sprint commercial debuted and aired repeatedly about a bride wanting a perfect wedding. Â She wanted a rainbow, but not the rain…… Â Many time’s in life there are disappointments, Â but never forget the good times ahead. Â This special gelding run’s his first race tonight at Turfway Park in Race #9 breaking from Post #2.
