Ok girl, you are confusing me today. Very sad for Tizlater. Hate to see or hear when something like that happens.

It was on TVG this past Saturday or Sunday that LITF was going to be retired and sold soon. Not sure if this colic isn't a little bit of gas they are spinning into a good reason to stop on him and sell. Either way if his fee is above 5k, his book shouldn't fill.

LITF will be an interesting stallion to watch because you don't normally see a champion sprinter with this sort of pedigree. His sire (Lost Soldier) was a stakes winner at 9f and is out of a Secretariat mare.
His broodmare sire Dr. Carter was a multiple graded stakes winner at 10f and has sired some solid route runners himself like former Canadian HOY Benburb. LITF has the pedigree of a router but he never tried it himself and he was an eclipse award winning sprinter. That sounds like a recipe for a good stallion.

On the other hand many question whether he ever beat anybody and if his eclipse award was a fluke (see the really long thread on this board regarding this topic) and while his pedigree is solid, Lost Soldier and Cloud Break don't exactly make for a sure thing.
It is always difficult to predict what these horses will do as stallions but in LITF's case I think it is even more difficult than usual.
