I'm almost positive he was at one point a Darley member, but I could be wrong. When he came back to the states, he was owned by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al Maktoum. I agree with you on the bad start stopping him from winning ... that was terrible. Horse had no chance after that.

I remember seeing him win at Saratoga in yellow silks. I think he reaced for Zabeel racing stable..Im sure that has some affiliation to the Royal family of Dubai.

Zabeel is Sheikh Mo's son. Henny ran for Darley in the BC Juvenile after they purchased him from "Snake Oil" Biancone.
