That really sucks. Thought he could've been a super sire, though hadn't seen anything from him in a while.

Terrible news. He's the last champion from Slew, and I think he would have been a top sire in time.

It is very sad.

Looking at it a different way, is this a good or a bad thing for the breed?

Dalakani is probably right. Unraced after a wonderful 2 yr old campaign but, again, very fragile. I actually saw him early last week when I was down in Lexington. He was gorgeous. Very sad to see them go though.

Very sad news. I always liked him and was looking forward to seeing his offspring on the track. RIP.....
