A Guy Axworthy-Maggie Winder filly, Margaret Spangler was foaled in 1918. She became the champion moneywinning mare of 1924. After her retirement she produced many fine offspring, including Chief Counsel, Blackstone and King's Counsel, all sub 2:00 performers. Margaret Spangler died in 1946 at Walnut Hall Farm, the only mare at that time to have produced three 2:00 pacers.
