Greatest Honour Tapit – Tiffany’s Honour, by Street Cry Bred in Kentucky by Courtlandt Farm   Greatest Honour, who is seeking his third consecutive graded stakes win at Gulfstream Park in Saturday’s Grade 1 Florida Derby, has established himself as a standout contender for the Kentucky Derby. He has a pedigree suited to the 1 1/4-mile Derby – but perhaps even more tailor-made for the 1 1/2-mile Belmont Stakes. Perennial leading sire Tapit is the most successful sire in the modern history of the Belmont Stakes, represented by three winners in Tonalist (2014), Creator (2016), and Tapwrit (2017). He is the first sire since the 1930s represented by that many winners of the oldest and longest American classic. Tapit is also the sire of Tacitus, elevated to third in the 2019 Kentucky Derby before finishing second in the Belmont; 2015 Preakness third Divining Rod; 2015 Belmont runner-up Frosted; and Belmont third-place finishers Lani (2016) and Hofburg (2018). :: KENTUCKY DERBY 2021: Derby Watch, point standings, prep schedule, news, and more Tiffany’s Honour is out of Grade 2 winner Better Than Honour, making her a half-sister to 2007 Kentucky Oaks and Belmont Stakes heroine Rags to Riches, an Eclipse Award champion, and to 2006 Belmont winner Jazil.
