Our Cover
Maturity. It’s a time of life that reflects the vigor and spirit of youth. It’s a move forward into a season of stamina. Independence. Personal experience.
This is the moment in time where we find the 12-year-old stallion One Famous Eagle. The 2005 sorrel is at that perfect age of maturity in his breeding career where his past accomplishments – both on and off the track – have brought him to the present. One Famous Eagle has transitioned from an incredible runner on the racetrack to an outstanding career as a sire.
One Famous Eagle appears on the cover of the 2017 Stallion Register and has proven himself more than worthy of this honor.
Bred by Johnny Trotter in Hereford, Texas, One Famous Eagle is owned by One Famous Eagle Syndicate in Guthrie, Texas. One Famous Eagle is by 2-time Champion Mr Jess Perry, the sire of over $49 million including World Champion Apollitical Jess. One Famous Eagle is out of Graded stakes-placed winner One Famous Lady, a multiple stakes producer and an All-Time Leading Dam of ROM. His second and third dams are also a stakes-placed winners and multiple stakes producers.
Racing for Burnett Ranches Ltd. and Johnny Trotter, One Famous Eagle was trained by John Bassett and ridden in each of his 11 starts by Saul Ramirez, Jr. at Los Alamitos Race Course. One Famous Eagle began racing as a two year old in 2007. He finished fifth in a maiden, and then was third in the trials to both the Ed Burke Million Futurity and the Golden State Million Futurity. He didn’t qualify to either. It was an inauspicious start to what would become a stellar racing career. One Famous Eagle next won his trial to the Los Alamitos Two Million Futurity-G1 wire-to-wire by 1 1/2-lengths and came back to win the $1,916,000 finals after a bumped start. He finished the year with $808,220.
His three-year-old season started with a wire-to-wire 1 1/4-length victory in an allowance, another wire-to-wire win in the trials to the Golden State Derby-G1, and then a wire-to-wire 1 1/2-length finish in the $313,900 finals in which he set a New Stakes Record. He next won his trial to the Los Alamitos Super Derby-G1 and scored a victory in the $907,750 finals. His last out on the track

was a fourth in the Champion of Champions-G1. He pocketed $579,233 that year, for total career earnings of $1,387,453. He was voted the 2008 Champion Three- Year-Old Colt and moved to the breeding shed.
In 2009, One Famous Eagle stood his first year at stud at 6666 Ranch in Guthrie, Texas, and he has remained there ever since. His first crop to race hit the tracks in 2012, making One Famous Eagle the #1 leading freshman sire and the #5 overall leading sire with more than $2.9 million banked. His leading starter that year was All American Futurity-G1 winner One Dashing Eagle, who earned over $2 million and was named the 2012 World Champion, Champion Two Year Old and Champion Two-Year-Old Colt.
In 2013, One Famous Eagle was the #1 leading sophomore sire with nearly $3 million in earners. He sired another Champion this year in 2013 Mexico Champion One Famous Episode. In 2014, One Famous Eagle was the #1 leading third year sire with nearly $4 million in earners, and he had another Champion in 2014 Champion Three-Year-Old Colt Hes Relentless. In 2015, One Famous Eagle was at the top once again as the #6 overall leading sire with over $3 million in earners. And in 2016, as of press time, One Famous Eagle is the #1 leading sire of the year with nearly $5 million. His top earner in 2016 is All American Futurity-G1 winner Imperial Eagle with over $1.5 million banked. In all, One Famous Eagle has sired money earners of nearly $17 million from only five crops to race.
And in the sale barn, horses sired by One Famous Eagle have consistently been among the leaders. He was the top sire at the 2016 Ruidoso Select Yearling Sale with 47 horses selling for over $2.3 million including the $210,000 second-highest seller. One Famous Eagle was also the sire of the $100,000 sale topper at the 2016 TQHA Yearling Sale.
We can only imagine what waits around the corner for One Famous Eagle. If we look at all he has accomplished on the track and as a sire, however, we see a perfected individual. Fully developed, prepared, and in his prime. And, we can peer into a future that looks as bright and full of promise as his past has been thus far.
