That was Tiznow's full brother Budroyale.

He was a gelding that was all over the friggen map with his form.

Jay Robbins also trained him at first ... but he debuted him in like a Maiden Claiming race - I think for a 32K tag. And he got claimed from Robbins in his debut.

The horse went from claimer to promising 3-year-old Derby contender - to claimer - to stakes horse - to claimer again - to VERY good stakes horse running 2nd in the Breeders Cup Classic.

Budroyale chart? I forgot about him....

I have a few cuts of his form later on in his career ... but not on this computer. No luck with that one.

Getting down to the nitty gritty - but here's a lifetime form of a good horse.

Lasix moved him way up - or at least brought him back to life ... but he only ran on it once ...

Name him.

Correct.

Final two races were with Nick Zito.

The 'r' for the bar show I thought would give it away ... but Mike Smith's biggest fan would have got that one even if I blocked that.

i figured the may date was ky, and knew chocolate candy had run fifth...but the rest of the races sure didn't fit him!!

I would have gotten it from the Saratoga win in his mdn, but you knew that

my all time fav horse and the reason I started following racing.. I was 12!

The horse that beat Unbridled's Song in his Fountain of Youth win was probably the greatest upset I've ever seen in a Derby prep ... and that includes the hopeless Rockamundo's Arkansas Derby win and the laughable Wild Syn's easy bias aided Blue Grass win - a race in which 4th place finisher Thunder Gulch and 3rd place finisher Tejano Run ran 1-2 in the Ky Derby next out.

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