Eerily worth noting that today is the very sad 20th anniversary of the death of Mike Venezia.
I remember that day well..... I heard racing was cancelled and wondered why, when I got home from work and watched the NYRA replays with Harvey Pack....I saw why. The was a tough show for everybody and really sad. Hard to believe that was 20 years ago.
