That's amazing. I was in College then and barely remember him but seeing Frank Labocetta's name gave it away.

Another old one.

Not that much as a racehorse - but was a champion sire on multiple occasions and sired two of the better KY Derby winners ever.



Name him.

On a side note, kind of cool seeing Crafty Khale in his running lines. I remember him from when I first started going to the track.

I did some sireline research for the derby a few years ago and there were only a handful of duel derby sires, Halo being one. Sunday Silence was one son but can't remember the other.

Isn't the other one easier....Sunny's Halo?

Though DrugS calling him one of the best two Derby winners ever is insane. I guess he must have mistakenly thought Devil's Bag won the Derby.
