Why did he only have two starts?
Must have been injury; if so was it racing related or a freak accident?
Thanks for any replies.

Hi Toccet,
I remember seeing him race (when I was a little track rat!) - very fast, but he had a racing-related leg injury.
Hope this helps!

Ooohhhh boy! That's not the greatest combination, but hey, you never know! Best of luck with the horse.

thanks---I did NOT recommend her purchase, but again a friend has gifted me part of his share in her. Don't get me wrong---I'm very grateful. Just concerned about him spending his money unwisely.
She did an eighth in .10, so she's also fast...just hope she holds up.

It wouldn't happen to be the right knee would it?? We have a mare who turns in on her right front foot, she is very pigeon toed on it. The left one is straight. She could run a llittle, made about $25,000. Otherwise, she is gorgeous.

it's kind of both---they're just really straight and rather flat knees, with a barely discernable "bow" back. I guess the right is worse.
