Southwind Amazon
« on: October 30, 2024, 09:38:09 AM »
He tied the modern day win total with Niffit with 137 wins. He is 14 years old and is 4 thousand short of banking 1.5 million in his career. A true war horse who did it the hard way which you don't see anymore.

I think you forgot to mention his trainer is Holzman. Enough said.

Say what you want about Paul Holzman but he always has horses that race consistent for a long time.  I'm not saying he is an angel but what ever he does it's hurting the horses longevity and soundness.  Very good horsemen in my opinion.

Look at JL Cruze, age 13, will earn close to $100,000 this year, closing in on 2 million.

He survived Josh Green and Ron Adams early in his career and kept going to 14yo

southwind amazon is a great horse. he isnt alwalys the soundest.
with that being said how many others have dropped in the cross ties at sahbra farms under the care of this guy. i know of one. he puts his grooms in charge of giving IV meds while he is on the road. pretty great guy.
