00:00Our fastest horse of the week brought to you again by the fast sires at Windstar Farm, where life is good in more ways than one.
00:07The stallion Life is Good, who you will hear more about shortly, is off to such a hot start with his yearlings at Keeneland September
00:14that among first crop sires, he currently ranks second only to flight line, a horse that Life is Good has chased before.
00:22His average yearling bringing $336,000, median $300,000. Life is Good's top colt, $1.25 million.
00:32His top filly brought $1.025 million. Those are some heady numbers.
00:38Of course, Life is Good knows all about fast starts. His speed on the track resulted in four grade one victories
00:44and nine triple-digit buyer speed figures, including that 112 buyer that ranks number one among all sons of Into Mischief.
00:55Now for our fastest horse of the week, the four-year-old colt, Ben Tornato,
00:59who Saturday might have run himself right into early favoritism for the Breeders' Cup Sprint
01:05with his powerhouse performance in the Louisville Thoroughbred Society stakes at Churchill Downs.
01:11Ben Tornato won by five and a half lengths with a career-high buyer figure of 108
01:16in his first start since last year's Breeders' Cup Sprint, which he lost by only a half length to straight no chaser.
01:24Ben Tornato was scratched in December from the Malibu with a foot issue that kept him out of training
01:29for an extended period of time, but he is back in a big way.
01:33And trainer Jose D'Angelo said Ben Tornato might not need to run again
01:38until his return to Del Mar for another run at the Breeders' Cup Sprint.
