He worked very impressively as OBS March as a 2yo, trainer Mike Machowsky was able to talk his clients into going to 300K for him...the most expensive horse he ever got to train at the time.

It was only a 13 MPH tailwind the day of the Pimlico Special.

Ahh there was many a good discussion
on Toccet and Buddy Gil on ESPN. I do
remember that and some of their following.

Southern Image seem like he was injured
quite a few times. Or he came back from
one signficant injury only to get injured again.
We just wanted to see him get a full chance.
Too bad.
