and i cleaned up my post above....jesus.

.....i always liked this horse, he was one i thought had a shot back when he was on the t.c. trail...never seemed quite able to stay healthy long enough, couldn't put it all back together after that great race early in the spring when he was three.

i'm really getting sick of eulogizing these beautiful, wonderful horses. rest in peace is starting to sound less than meaningful.

he had a hell of a race with premium tap. i'm sorry that's the last i'll ever get to see of him.
