Appeared he could not be fit for the 1902 Kentucky Derby, as was unsound. McDowell drove him to a buggy months before, keeping weight off the colt’s shaky pins and getting him some sort of physical fitness. Won the Derby in his only start as a 3yo.
The chart from the race states that the colt went lame in the stretch, “but carried on with flawless courage to win by a nose."
Set NAR for 1 mile of 1:37 3/5
Died 1925.
