Petee-Wrack (USA)
1925 – November 13, 1954
Wrack (GB) x Marguerite (USA), by Celt (USA)
Family 4-n
Almost forgotten now because of his younger half brother, Gallant Fox, Petee-Wrack was the horse that began Marguerite's reputation as an important broodmare. While he never became a champion, he won important races at 3, 4 and 5. Unfortunately, he was an indifferent sire.

As an individual
A tough, sound bay horse, Petee-Wrack was game and determined in a drive. He handled off going well.
As a stallion
According to Jockey Club records, Petee-Wrack sired 93 winners (49.2%) and 7 stakes winners (3.7%) from 189 named foals. He gained some note as a sire of jumpers, getting two winners of the Maryland Hunt Cup and an American Grand National winner.
Notable progeny
Brother Jones (USA), Columbiana (USA), Peterski (USA), Pine Pep (USA).
Connections
Petee-Wrack was bred by Belair Stud (William Woodward, Sr.). He was owned by John R. Macomber, who purchased the colt from the 1926 Saratoga yearling sale.
Pedigree notes
Petee-Wrack is inbred 5x5 to 1873 Derby Stakes winner Doncaster and Rouge Rose through the full sister and brother Rose of Lancaster and Bend Or (assuming that Bend Or was produced from Rouge Rose as officially shown in the General Stud Book; see The Mystery of Bend Or.) He is a half brother to 1930 American Horse of the Year Gallant Fox, English champion 2-year-old male Foxbrough and the good stakes winner Fighting Fox, all by Sir Gallahad III. He is also a half brother to multiple stakes producers Maraschino, Marigal and Marguery, likewise sired by Sir Gallahad III. Petee-Wrack's dam Marguerite is a half sister to the good stakes winner Cloudland (by Wrack) and is out of Fairy Ray (by Radium), a half sister to three English stakes winners.
Fun facts
Petee-Wrack was the namesake for an allowance purse at the now-defunct Rockingham Park.

She proceeded to work on commissions in Rome and Tuscany and subsequently hosted exhibits of her paintings in Washington, D.C.
