California-bred Soi Phet (Tizbud), a veteran of 64 starts and eight black-type victories over the span of eight seasons, was pensioned after his final start at Los Alamitos June 29 and arrived via Sallee Horse Van to Old Friends in Georgetown, KY, Monday afternoon.

Claimed by Leonard Powell on behalf of Mathilde Powell, the Benowitz Family Trust and Paul Viskovich in 2013, he won over $1 million for his connections and became the oldest stakes winner in Santa Anita history when annexing the state-bred restricted Crystal Water S. as a 10-year-old in 2018. He won 15 races overall and bankrolled $1,023,917.

“I'm such a fan of Soi Phet, and I'm so excited to welcome him to Old Friends,” said the organization's founder and President Michael Blowen. “We hope all of his fans will visit him here, and we thank Leonard and his owners for sharing this great champ with us.”
