Trainer:Patrick Biancone Jockey:Joe Bravo Foaling Date: 3-16-2002 Pedigree: Horse Chestnut - Baby Rabbit by No Sale George Dosage Profile: 8-2-6-2-0 Dosage Index/CD: 2.60 0.89 2004 Record: 4 starts 2-2-0 $84,420 Best Beyer Figure: 93 (94 sprint) Graded Stakes Earnings: $124,000 Note: Was nothing great at two with only an allowance and maiden win, but was an impressive winner in the San Rafael in his 2005 debut. Led and faded to third in the Santa Catalina then lead and faded to 6th in the Lane's End at Turfway. Came back to lead and fade to a horrible 6th in the Blue Grass last out. Probably has enough graded earnings to get in the Derby, but I can't imagine why they would want to enter him.
