Sea The Stars (Cape Cross) was retired on Tuesday October 13, dashing all hopes the Americans had of seeing the Euro star run in the Breeders' Cup Classic.
The 3-year-old, out of the great Urban Sea was a possible for America's richest race after his dominating performance in the $5,828,400 Arc de Triomphe on Oct 4. Had Sea The Stars been entered in the BC Classic on November 7, he would have carried a 26.3 System number in with him. You can compare that to last year's favorite, Curlin (19.4), and eventual winner Raven's Pass (20.4). The 3-year-old's number is the highest System number in recent memory.
Sea The Stars' siblings include the great Galileo, My Typhoon, Black Sam Bellamy and All Too Beautiful.
