As a racehorse, One Famous Eagle was a champion in both his 2-year-old and 3-year-old campaigns. But he was a slow starter. As a 2 year old, he ran well in his first few races but couldn’t quite find the winner's circle. Trainer John Bassett said he wasn’t worried…
But once he found his way to the winners circle, he liked it there. He won the Los Alamitos Two Million Futurity (G1) in 2007, the Los Alamitos Super Derby (G1) and Golden State Derby (G1). With five wins from six starts in his 3-year-old season, he was honored as 2008 AQHA Racing Champion 3 year-old Colt. As a 3 year-old, he was the first horse to record 3 winning times at 19.32 or faster at 400 yards at Los Alamitos Racecourse.
One Famous Eagle finished 2016 as the top-ranked Quarter Horse stallion in North America. His offspring were quite simply winning machines, earning $5.9 million that year. His top performers include All American Futurity champions One Dashing Eagle in 2012, Imperial Eagle in 2016, and 2017 winner Fly Baby Fly; other stakes winners included Getting Even, the Remington Park Distaff champion; One Proud Eagle, winner of the Kindergarten Futurity at Los Alamitos; Graceful Eagle, winner of the Texas Classic Juvenile at Lone Star Park and Stinkin Rich, who won the Bob Woodward Memorial at Indiana Grand…Texas Classic Derby winner Bodacious Eagle and graded stakes winners Hes Relentless and Moonin the Eagle…to mention just a few.
The son of Mr Jess Perry stands at 6666 Ranch in Guthrie, Texas. One Famous Eagle set records as a first crop sire, and continues with exceptional runners each year.
