An article from the Phila. Inquirer
'Maybe the biggest controversy between the Derby and the Preakness in Baltimore was a light-hearted one, about where Barbaro was actually from. He was born and bred in Kentucky, spent most of his second and third winters in Florida, ran his first race in Delaware, and worked out of a stall in Maryland. But his owners were from Pennsylvania.The Jacksons are the breeders, as well as the owners of Barbaro. It was their mare, La Ville Rouge, who was bred to Dynaformer, the sire. It was their choice where Barbaro would be born. If she had to decide, she said it had to come down to Pennsylvania and Kentucky. The way she looked at it, all the other places were working stops.
"I could make a lot of enemies, couldn't I?" joked Gretchen Jackson when she was asked a few days after the Derby where she considered Barbaro to be "from."
But had the horse at least been to Pennsylvania?
"Maybe on the Turnpike," Gretchen Jackson quipped.
