Wild Syn basically reverted back to being a claimer - but he still was no doubt better than the horrible Built For Pleasure.

its too bad he had to be owned by Paragallo. He would have had a better chance of having a great career had he had an owner that wouldnt have run him with quarter cracks.. he raced in the Wood and Derby with cracks.. Paragallo did not deserve any of the money he made off UBS's stud career.
