[edit] Tizzy's Dragon
WP:HOAX. La Ville Rouge is the dam of Barbaro. Her 2004 colt was named Man In Havana, was sired by Quiet American and was retired before racing. The 2006 Champagne Stakes were won by Scat Daddy. The 2007 Blue Grass Stakes were won by Dominican. The 2007 Queen's Plate was won by Mike Fox, who was ridden by Emma-Jayne Wilson, the first woman to win the race. The 2006 Sovereign Award winner for Canadian Horse of the Year was Arravale. In addition, the Breeder's Cup registry, which all horses who run in Breeders Cup races must be registered to, shows that this horse does not exist. SmashvilleBONK! 21:23, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
- Please note that Twinkle didn't put the AfD notice on the article, so I just templated it myself. --SmashvilleBONK! 09:19, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

- More...the article was written in February, but claims that Tizzy's Dragon won the Blue Grass Stakes (run in April) and was withdrawn from the Kentucky Derby on Derby day (first Saturday in May). --SmashvilleBONK! 17:19, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
Strong delete. I think Smashville is right. No need to relist, just delete it. Cool Hand Luke 22:21, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
