He almost spontaneously combusted after that ridiculous run

Rockamundo in the 93 Ark Derby. He was so charged up that day he bounced for the rest of his career.

He beat Diazo that day!

Who was the sire of electrifying 4.5 length Ark Derby winner Valhol.

The video of this race finally surfaced on Youtube. Just thought I'd post it.

I still can't believe that horse didn't turn out better than he did.

That was insane for a horse making it's 2nd lifetime start.

It was a bit ironic that a horse that agile would die of EPM, degenerating to the point where he couldn't even get up anymore.

I know he was a bridesmaid in 3 TC races in a row but what about Alydar's performance in the 1978 Florida Derby - 1:47 flat for a 1 1/8 miles - "awesome fast"
