Correct - was the 5/2 favorite in the KY Derby less than 2 months after his debut.

That's amazing. I was in College then and barely remember him but seeing Frank Labocetta's name gave it away.

Another old one.

Not that much as a racehorse - but was a champion sire on multiple occasions and sired two of the better KY Derby winners ever.

Name him.

I'm impressed.

On a side note, kind of cool seeing Crafty Khale in his running lines. I remember him from when I first started going to the track.

I did some sireline research for the derby a few years ago and there were only a handful of duel derby sires, Halo being one. Sunday Silence was one son but can't remember the other.
