Sorry to see that. Always takes money. Most always hopeless.

When was this guy ever hyped? He ran 3 really good races as a 2yr old. He fell apart after the Arkansas Derby. I don't recall anyone ever hyping him.

He won the Futurity and Remsen as a 2YO and the Arkansas Derby as a 3YO. He may not be a world beater but he's far from a bum. And RHT is right, there was never any significant hype surrounding him.
