For anyone who follows the state-bred allowances, this one really hurts. This guy has just been a mainstay in those races in recent years; five of his ten career wins came in the NYbred allowances.
He was both endearing and enduring: had 11 starts @7yo and 10 starts as a 6yo. These years followed an interesting progression: started twice as a 2yo, three times as a 3yo, 4 times as a 4yo, and 5 times as a 5yo.
RIP, Driven By Solar.
