Waxy (horse)[edit]

(

... that when Waxy (pictured) won the 1793 Derby Stakes, more than half of the competing racehorses were his siblings sired by Pot-8-Os?

Comment: Does anyone want to expand the "Pot-8-Os" article and make this a double-DYK hook? --PFHLai (talk) 19:52, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

Can't speak for the Pot-8-Os article, but thought this should be reviewed at least. All checks out, had a look at the source website and the contributors are all experts in their fields, so in my opinion it is a reliable source. Miyagawa (talk) 21:56, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
