Default Never seen this one before

By accident, stumbled upon the past performances of a horse running in Chile tomorrow (GP is simulcasting and it was in the back of their section of the DRF).

Power Indy---running tomorrow in Chile made an amazing 60 starts in 2008 and will already be making his 3rd start of 2009. With 12 races of pps showing, his 12th race back was less than 2 months ago, on Novermber 15. For his career, the 6 YO gelding has started 127 times.....a very hard way to earn $23,968. Breaking from the next stall isSestri, a 9 YO horse (no, they never gelded him) who's started 212 times and banked $43,179. Apparently age is catching up to him as he only started 23 times in 2008. It's likely very few horses in the history of racing will have raced on an off track more than Sestri: 111 of his 212 starts have come on off tracks.
