You are right that he never won a stakes race. However, he is out of a Grade I winning mare and he did run 2nd in the Grade I Florida Derby and the Grade I Belmont Stakes.

How much play he gets for $10k remains to be seen.

He wasn't much to look at either - between Van Nistlerooy, Scat Daddy, and now this - Coolmoore's got the market cornered on precocious also-rans

But, but, he made a big middle move in the Florida Derby. He could have been great. His offspring are bound for greatness, just like him if he would have raced more than 4 times.

Scat Daddy was extremely overrated and one of my least favorite horses in recent memory, but how is a G1 and G2 winner at 2 and 3 merely an also-ran?

I believe $10k is the suggested retail price.

I don't think that's fair. Didn't he die way before the Derby?

You're right - was emphasizing the precociousness-then-done aspects of their recent line... And this one fits the bill more than any.... I don't think this climate is conducive to a Florida Derby winner stud as their greatest achievement.

Just what the breed needs, hundreds more glass-legged grandsons of US.
