I loved Tasso. I couldn't believe that horse never developed past 2.

Also, nice job by Lukas with his two in there, Louisiana Slew and Ketoh. The former cost 2.9 million and made back all of that purchase price except for the last 2.825 million.

Ketoh was a homebred half to Althea (among others) that won his debut by double digit lengths and had great expectations. He died early in his 3yo season.
