probably not unexpected--but also not worth the trouble if they don't have the ability to pay their way! fupeg was talented and a winner, makes it a bit easier to deal with the bull.

Not necessarily. Plenty of thoroughbreds are high-strung and not all of them pass that trait on in a negative manner.

I remember seeing 2 FuPegs at the Timonium 2yo sale both were
kind of crazy and their confirmation was less than desirable. I
Think both sold for less than 10k. I know the one is struggling
in bottom maiden claimers at Philly Park.
