Got the Last Laugh to McKathan

Graded stakes winner Got the Last Laugh has been retired from racing and will stand at McKathan Brothers Farm near Citra, Fla., in 2009. Owned by a partnership, he will stand for $2,500.

In just his second start, Got the Last Laugh dead-heated for first in the 2006 Arlington-Washington Breeders’ Cup Futurity (gr. III), with subsequent champion Street Sense  finishing right behind. Got the Last Laugh had won at Saratoga in his first start.

This year, the 4-year-old son of Distorted Humor ran second in the John Henry and Barksdale Stakes. He retired with five wins from 21 starts and earnings of $249,227 for Zayat Stables. 

Bred in Kentucky by a partnership that included Brilliant STB and Taylor Made, Got the Last Laugh was produced from the graded stakes-winning Cee’s Tizzy mare Theresa’s Tizzy, who is one of four stakes winners from her stakes-winning dam.
