Widener Handicap (1968)

Sette Bello (1962–1979) was an American Thoroughbred racehorse best known for winning the 1968 Widener Handicap at Hialeah Park Race Track in Florida[1] and as the damsire of Timely Writer.[2] Sired by the Italian runner, Ribot, Sette Belo's dam was Honor Bound, a daughter of Bull Dog.[3]

Sette Bello was bred and raced by New York City investment banker Robert Lehman[4] and race conditioned by U.S. Racing Hall of Fame trainer, Jimmy Conway.[5] Sette Bello was named by Mrs. Lehman after an Italian express train run from Milan to Rome, the Settebello, which can be translated as the "lucky or beautiful seven."
