Not to say he isn't useful. He's made $44k... because after all, NY breds start with an advantage. Does anyone here remember the great Pocahoba? Owned by my friends at Pont St. Stables and trained by Del Carroll, she broke her maiden in career start #33 having amassed, I believe, a bankroll of $130,000! She promptly got hurt in start #34 and had to be retired.

Agree Steve- it isn't uncommon at all to see these types with this sort of a record break through MSW in their 20th plus start - the state bred program there is great in that respect you eventually catch a soft field and as long as you hit the board you pay the bills... I wouldn't be surprised to see this one get through at the condition but he's up against it today, though can easily be a part of it underneath - I'm more concerned about the Rice horse off the layoff who I'm still on the fence about adding
