It doesn't water down my pleasure and admiration for Lost in the Fog, but I feel indeed fortunate to have been in the right place at the right time to also personally see and witness race Spectacular Bid, Seattle Slew, Alysheba, Sunday Silence and Unbridled, just off the top of my head.


But I've gotta say, I did of all those feel most personally connected to Lost in the Fog.

Now all that said, for the occasional sad story I just remind myself that somewhere every day there's likely a horse winning a race with a story that feels good with regard to the horse or connections.

And if that doesn't work I just remember I always feel good to have handicapped a nice winner while holding a nice ticket.

While they are all very awesome, Alysheba is one horse I really wish I had seen in person.
