PRIDES GOLD COIN
|
A product of the legendary
Harlinsdale Farms breeding program, Prides Gold Coin was sired by
Pride of Midnight, out of the great broodmare, Delight's Joanna.
From 1975 to 1983, he was owned first by Dr. William Wellborn and C.
A. Bobo and later, exclusively by Dr. Wellborn. In 1983, he
became the property of the Ragan family's RRR Farms.

Following a stellar show career in
which he and Bill Bobo won the 1976 Two-Year-Old World Grand
Championship, the 1977 Three-Year-Old World Grand Championship,
and the 1978 Four-Year-Old World Championship, and Four-Year-Old
World Grand Championship, Prides Gold Coin went on to become one
of the most influential breeding stallions of his time.

Standing at Harlinsdale
Farms, he sired such greats as 1987 World Grand Champion, Coin's
Hard Cash. All told, the progeny of Prides Gold Coin competing
in nearly every division, won a total of 76 World Championships, and
19 World Grand Championships. His influence will be felt for
many years to come.
