In February 1947, five-year-old Pot O'Luck won the Cocoanuts Purse at Hialeah Park Race Track and in April earned his second win of the Ben Ali Stakes at Keenland Race Course. On June 13 it was announced that he had been sold to bloodstock agent John H. Clark who raced him without success until selling him in the fall to a Virginia breeding syndicate.[10] A few years later Pot O'Luck was sold to a breeding operation in France but overall he met with little success as a sire. His best runner was Pot Hunter, a multiple stakes winner in Canada.
