Spanish Chestnut continues to get stomped every month or two in stakes races. He must really look terrible working on the turf, because you'd think they'd try him as a turf miler by now with that pedigree.

Scrappy T was not retired. He injured a gluteal muscle working 34 flat in his first work under a tiny exercise rider. Scrappy is a very tough handful of 17.2 hands!
He's been at a rehab/training facility in KY. but has not been officially retired.

17.2 hands? That can't be true.

I saw him at AQU for the Wood Memorial, stood right next to him. He was a solid 17hh then as a very early 3yo. I'm 5'8 and couldn't see over him.
I was told that by late last year he was over 17.1 and I believe the person who told me. Steve, you know I have all kinds of "powers!"
