Deelites to Old Friends

Afternoon
Deelites descends from Damascus on his sire’s side and
Secretariat on his dam’s.
Raced
by composer Burt Bacharach and conditioned by Richard Mandella,
the West Virginia-bred went from his victorious first start right
into stakes company, polishing off The Hollywood Prevue Breeder’s
Cup (G3), then drawing away from Thunder Gulch to take the G1
Hollywood Futurity. At three, Afternoon Deelites continued his
winning streak in the San Vicente (G3) and stretching out to two
turns in the San Felipe (G2). He prevailed in the Malibu S (G1)
at Santa Anita, and at four won the Commonwealth Breeders’
Cup H at Keeneland.
Always
piloted by Kent Desormeaux, Afternoon Deelites earned $1,061,193
lifetime and won 7 of his 12 starts. He stood at Airdre Stud for
much of his breeding career, then at Clear Creek Stud in
Louisiana.
Old
Friends is grateful to Val Murrell of Clear Creek for the
privilege of retiring him to our Kentucky farm. Afternoon
Deelites’ top progeny were graded stakes winners Zappa,
Three Hour Nap and Miss Pickums, but he also has the rare
distinction of having sired a movie star—our very own
Seabiscuit “actor” Popcorn Deelites.
