I liked this horse, but man, he had a lot of hype surrounding him.

I remember early in his career that someone associated with the horse, I think Nerud, said that they expected him to be worth $100 million as a stallion.

I am surprised he didn't do better at stud.

He had a half brother named Lookinforthebigone that I thought was a real killer. I think he got Lukas'd though after a short career.

He was one of the greatest putovers in modern racing history in his debut. Waited for that year's Jolley killer 2YO Mogambo to be entered, told everyone Roy was their best horse, and galloped at 27:1.
