Background

Regal Glory is a chestnut mare who was bred in Kentucky by Paul Pompa Jr., a daughter of 2011 Kentucky Derby winner Animal Kingdom out of the More Than Ready mare Mary's Follies. Regal Glory is a half sister to grade 3 winner Night Prowler and Cafe Pharoah, a Grade 3 winner in Japan. The mare raced for Paul Pompa Jr. until his death in October 2020. Paul Pompa's horses were dispersed at the Keeneland 2021 January Horses of All Ages Sale and Regal Glory was sold for US$925,000 to Peter M. Brant. [3] Sire Animal Kingdom was relocated to stand in Japan for the 2020 breeding season but he stood at Darley in Kentucky from 2014 to 2019 during this period Regal Glory was conceived. [4]

Tepin is a retired Thoroughbred racehorse who was named the American Champion Female Turf Horse of 2015 and 2016. She showed very promising form as a two-year-old in 2013 when she won the Delta Princess Stakes on the dirt. After a disappointing three-year-old season when she failed to win in four starts, she emerged as a top-class turf performer in 2015. Her wins as a four-year-old included the Churchill Distaff Turf Mile Stakes, Just A Game Stakes and First Lady Stakes before recording her biggest success when defeating male opposition in the Breeders' Cup Mile. In 2016, she won her first four starts and was then sent to England, where she defeated a field of leading European milers to win the Queen Anne Stakes. On returning to North America, she extended her winning streak to eight in the Woodbine Mile. The streak included three Grade/Group 1 wins against male horses in three different countries. Although Tepin finished second in her next two starts including an effort to defend her title in the Breeders Cup Mile, she was still named the Champion Female Turf Horse for the second year in a row. Tepin was inducted to the Canadian Horse Racing Hall of Fame in 2020 and the US National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame in 2022.
