A homebred for Alan Osburg, Dixie Blossoms has won seven of 30 starts earning over $1.3million and was a deserved winner at the elite level following several seasons competing against the best mares in the land.
Runner-up El Dorado Dreaming won the Group I ATC Sires Produce Stakes last season as a bolter, but has since proven herself consistently in the best company and has won just shy of $1million in prizemoney.
