Unbridled Danger is by UBS - and he's made 85 starts in his career - 16 so far this year and 24 last year.

He's tough as nails. .
And he is also a gelding. If you geld a colt early enough, he doesn't develop that heavy stallion neck and shoulder that can put so much strain on the forelegs while racing. Especially noticeable with 17-handers. Forego was gelded because he was getting too big too early.
