Paso is a stocky handsome chap. He is a Florida-bred with 47 starts that earned him $102,378 in his career. He came to Puerto Rico from Delaware Park racetrack in 2018. He last raced here in Puerto Rico on July 30, 2021, placing 10th. Paso was retired from racing with an old left front sesamoid fracture. Paso will be able to go on to be a low level pleasure riding horse. Could he be your #righthorse?
