Pevehouse tells how the mating of Royal Quick Flash and Turnpikes Texas Hero came about. “I was training Turnpikes Texas Hero
and I just wasn’t pleased with her. I thought, ‘Well, I’ll get her ready here at the house and run her as a three year old.’ Then, I went
to talk to either Don or Larry Steele about breeding this mare one time and only one time as I was going back to the track with her as a three year old. We got High Class Turnpike and she became a Champion as a three year old.”
