Stein was a gorgeous 2012, 16 hand, dark bay (nearly black!) Thoroughbred, gelding. Mr. Stein is by Einstein (BRZ) winner of more than $2 million and out of the Dynaformer mare, Heartache Dyna. This impeccably bred gelding did well on the racetrack and last raced September 1, 2018 at Arlington Park retiring with over $48k in earnings from 25 starts. Stein was rescued by the ILEHC in early 2019 from a kill pen in Stroud, Oklahoma. Stein was one of the unfortunate victims of his owner's mass disposal of racing and breeding stock. Unfortunately, only a few of more than 40 suspected horses that were sold to slaughter by this owner were able to be recovered from slaughter auctions or feedlots. Thankfully, the ILEHC was able to step up to rescue this beautiful, sweet, sound, and kind gelding. ILEHC lost Stein to a pasture accident in mid-February 2020, way too soon.
