Got lots of photo of "The Chief" today at his final race. He lost by a nose but Russell rode him well and he tried hard, as always. He just got beat by a better (and younger) horse today. Papa Morey (trainer) looked like he wanted to cry, said it looked like he won from where he was watching. The old warrior left the track with his tail swishing and a spring in his step (the horse, not the trainer ).

I'll post photos tomorrow...
