It is my hope he is shipped to Old Friends where he live out his life chasing grasshoppers and butterflies

Just really hard to swallow after following his comeback so closely..just glad it was found before the race. He's the best horse I've ever seen run.

"I expect he'll retire to our farm here in Kentucky. He'll be turned out with his brother Successful Dan." said LoPresti.

To think this horse ran in the 2010 BC Sprint and then goes on to become one of the best turf milers ever is crazy!
