Very good bio of the first undefeated Triple Crown winner. Slew was an "ugly" foal, had foot issues, and was refused by Keeneland to be offered at their yearling sales. He was sold for less than $20K to a pair of 30-something couples who wanted to own a race horse. Unorthodox owners, unorthodox trainer, unwanted horse wound up becoming a champion and the sire of champions.

I enjoyed this one a lot. ( )
