I wish Breyer would make an Alydar model. I have Seattle Slew & Rags to Riches.

Alydar did become one of our great sires. Unfortunately it appears that he was murdered for $36 million in insurance money. That's the inescapable conclusion of the MIT professor who studied the evidece. Calument could never be worth the loss of his life or spirit. RIP great one!!
