Springfield (horse)

Springfield was an American Thoroughbred racehorse, foaled in 1943. He was sired by Blenheim II, a British Triple Crown winner imported to the United States, out of the mare Doric. Springfield was owned and trained by William L. Brann. While not a Triple Crown winner, Springfield achieved notable success in major stakes races during his career, primarily in the late 1940s. He demonstrated versatility, competing effectively at varying distances. He was considered a top contender among his contemporaries, known for his speed and stamina. His racing record contributed to the legacy of his sire, Blenheim II, and demonstrated the quality of American Thoroughbred breeding during that era.
