Bold Lad (1962–1986) was an American Champion Thoroughbred racehorse.
Bold Lad bred and raced by Gladys Phipps and her brother Ogden L. Mills under their Wheatley Stable banner. His sire was eight-time leading sire in North America Bold Ruler, and his dam was the racing mare Misty Morn. He was trained by Bill Winfrey.
Beatrice Mills Forbes, Lady Granard, the sister of Gladys Mills Phipps and Ogden L. Mills, bred the British mare Barn Pride to Bold Ruler, producing another colt named Bold Lad. Bold Lad raced in England and Ireland, where he, too, won Champion Two-Year-Old Colt honors.
At age two, Bold Lad won every important race for his age group. He set a new Saratoga track record of 1:15 3/5 in winning the 6½-furlong Hopeful Stakes [1] and equalled the Aqueduct track record time of 1:16 in his win in the 6½-furlong Futurity Stakes. [2] Bold Lad's performances made him a unanimous selection as the 1964 American Champion Two-Year-Old Colt. [3]
