bred by John Donovan, well-known railroad magnate, banker, horseman, owner of King
Hill Stock Farm; foaled in 1897 on the farm of Gay Brothers, near Pisgah, Ky. Mr.
Donovan sent the mare, Daisy Dimple, to Rex McDonald while he was in Kentucky, the
property of John Hughes, and had the mare cared for by Gay Brothers. Colonel Donovan
owned him until he was two years old when he sold him to George D. Bernard who lived at
that time at Colorado Springs, Colo., who also owned the sensational stallion, Forest King
1462, by Squirrel King 973, by Black Squirrel 58. Mr. Bernard paid $3,000 for Rex Blees
when he was two years old and it was one of the largest, if not the largest, price paid for a
two-year-old up to that time. He is said to have been an unusually handsome fellow, with
stripe in face, hind legs white half way to hock, and right fore foot and ankle white, an
unusually heavy mane and tail, with fine head, small sharply set ears, and one of the best
of saddle backs. Rex Blees began his show-ring career at Colorado Springs in 1901. He
eventually came into the hands of John Hook and became one of the most prominent of
the progeny of Rex McDonald and had a very sensational show career.
