Anyone have any opinions of him? His Gladiatorus just won the Dubai Duty Free, and Silic is standing in California now. Problems? Knees?

Ooooh, thanks, I of course didn't run a search, just posted the question when it popped into my head and then ran out the door.
Thanks Fastappy.

I think the reason Silic is not in Kentucky is the bias against grass horses. As for our Silic colt (Silky Remark), he is very fast but has had problems staying sound. I think we have all the injuries behind us and we should be getting to the races soon.

I'm partial to the turfy types hence the interest in Silic. Good luck with yours.

He has terrible knees... as bad as I've ever seen. PM me if you'd like pictures I took of his knees.
