Thx OD! Thought it would be nice to swing back around and get Wiggins' thoughts and retrospective on the occasion. He was great to be around leading up to Oaks, and remains a real gentleman about everything that went on with the filly. I first got to know him in 1990 with a colt named Perfect Sleeper, and was pleased to see him get into the spotlight like he did with a once in a lifetime horse.
