Ooo la la, what a handsome boy! He’s been a consistent race horse, hitting the board in 11 of his 16 starts, but he has recently been sidelined by a knee injury that he sustained during training hours when he did some speed work and came back to the barn ouchy. He was okay to walk out of the barn for our photo session, but he was not yet sound enough to get jog video. We watched the video of his one winning race, and saw a lovely mover, light and balanced, with great reach from the shoulders. The trainer has not x-rayed the knee. We would advise a discussion regarding his unsoundness with his trainer, and a vet evaluation and possible x-rays, as it may be something that, with time and rehab, he will become serviceably sound. Flagofpomeroy qualifies for our gelding incentive program, where FLF will pay part of the cost of gelding by an on track vet, to an approved good home. Gelding by one of the racetrack veterinarians is fairly affordable and we feel strongly that the majority of intact males leaving the track make better geldings. He is by Pomeroy, a grandson of Danzig, and his dam is by Distinctive Pro out of a mare by Personal Flag.

As always, a pre-purchase veterinary exam is recommended.
