Does anyone remember him? His last 5 races were in FL and I don't believe he hit the board in any of them.

I remember Talakeno. Before he got good, Frankie Brothers had him at Fair Grounds.
I also remember Ayman. Laz Barrera shipped him to FG for the 1985 New Orleans Handicap. He got in a speed duel, went 6f in 1:10 and 2/5, and tired down the stretch under a young Gary Stevens.
