Notorious for his bad temper and being dangerous to handle.
By 1902 he led the General Sire list with only 2 & 3YOs racing, unprecedented at the time. Leading sire in North America (1902, 1908).
Became paralyzed and was euthanized at Mr. Belmont's order, supposedly on June 17, 1917. Was allegedly buried in an unmarked grave at Nursery Stud that is now lost.
However, DRF reported his death on June 8, 1917, noting it had taken place 4 or 5 days before, and that his hide had been preserved in order to be tanned and turned into a robe, the same as St. Blaise. eduardHA64 (add pic)
