Southern Image had a lot of ability, won his only race at 2, but had to sit out most of his sophomore year, including the Triple Crown, Travers and BC Classic. Came back in a big way at Santa Anita in the winter of his 4yo year, looked to be headed toward a great year as an older horse when he got hurt again. So he missed the big summer handicaps and fall wfas, including the BC Classic, the 'glamour' races for stallion ads. And he wasn't by Storm Cat, Seattle Slew or Mr. P (or a son), he was by 'regional' sire Halo's Image whose yearlings don't break records, so he was sort of forgotten by the time he went to stud the next spring.

One of THE most fragile horses of the last decade. Unbelievably talented, yet incredibly unsound. It was amazing he even ran eight times.
