Nothing like unsound horses like Badge of Silver creating more of them.

Badge of Silver could really run.

Hate on the never-ending crush of stallions who were both unsound and never proved themselves as race horses.

If I was trained by Werner I could run as well....until I couldn't.

I thought Frankel had Badge of Silver. He had awful looking feet when I saw him.

He got him later in his career when Ramsey was looking for a miracle. He had a fractured cannon bone as a 2 yo and believe knee chips as well.

Badge of Silver was such an awesome talent.

Here's his career form: http://www.airdriestud.com/pdf/badge_pp.pdf


Even the almost impossible to impress Steve Haskin had nice things to say about him...

Quote:
BADGE OF SILVER first burst on to the national stage when winning his first three races by a combined 26 lengths and becoming the early favorite for the Kentucky Derby. His third win, a spectacular 10 length romp in the G3 Risen Star Stakes, earned him a 108 Beyer speed figure and verbal accolades from the sport's most knowledgeable horsemen. Following the race, Steve Haskin of the Blood-Horse wrote: "If there is the proverbial "Freak" then this is the one....to say he's been brilliant would be a gross understatement." Unfortunately throat surgery derailed BADGE OF SILVER's triple crown chances.

Running 3rd in the BC Mile first time off of a 10 month layoff is probably one of Frankel's better training achievments.

Thanks CS, that is starting to ring a bell with me. He won a couple of 3yo races at FG didn't he?
