RACING RECORD

Head to head clashes: Stymie v Gallorette
Between November 1945 and July 1948 Gallorette (a 3YO in 1945) raced against Stymie (a 4YO in 1945) 19 times. Stymie's race record is set out above. Stymie won the head to head contest finishing in front of Gallorette 10 times to 9. Stymie finished in first place 4 times to Gallorette 2 times.
Galiorette had a slightly better winning percentage with 21 wins from 72 starts while Stymie won 35 of 131 starts. Both were placed in over 70% of their starts.
Gallorette retired as the all-time leading money winner among females in the USA and worldwide.
(Stymie briefly held the world earning record in 1947 when he passed Whirlaway's total until Stymie was passed by Armed in the same year. Armed, a prolific winner of 41 races and the same age as Stymie, rarely raced against Gallorette and Stymie as he ran mostly in Chicago and Miami)
