Catlaunch has retired and is looking to Old Friends for a retirement home at 12 years of age, having raced 11 consecutive years. Of 108 starts he was 40-22-15, a multiple stakes winner, ranked in the Top 100 in 2006, 2007 and 2008, and earned over $1.1 million.

Congratulations to him.

Catlaunch has arrived at Old Friends.

Last week saw the arrival of another multiple stakes winner who deserves enormous respect. Ohio bred Catlaunch started 107 times and won over $1 million. Right through the age of 12 he stacked up a list of Ohio stakes wins as tall as he is (and Catlaunch is very tall). He won the Babst/Palacios Memorial H and Gendelman Memorial H 4 times each, the George Lewis Memorial S 3 times and the Rowland Memorial no less than 6 times! He’s all heart and he’s sweet, too. He likes to lick faces and ears.

He's in fine company: Rail Trip, Geronimo, Areyoutalkintome, Maybesomaybenot (nice match, eh?) and Johannesbourbon all arrived at Old Friends in the last few weeks. I'm eager to visit again soon.

Edit: How did this thread end up in the Breeders' Cup Archive?

No idea why this is here but happy for the update. He looks great!
