Default Louisiana-bred trivia

With Louisiana Champions Day tomorrow, I thought it would be a good time for some Labred trivia. Each answer was a Labred, accredited or not.

Bret Thomas went on a tear one spring in the 1990s with this pair of Louisiana-breds, one a 3yo and the other a 4yo, winning the New Orleans Handicap, Risen Star, and Arkansas Derby. The older horse became the first Labred to win a million, and he did it the hard way before the dawn of slots-fueled purses. The older horse finished third in a Grade 1 as a 3yo and as a 4yo. The younger horse defeated a Kentucky Derby winner in Hot Springs.

Name them both.
