And it took over five weeks for that news to come to the public why?

she isn't the first. Many of these passings take so long to become public. It's not like I will be holding a vigil at their doorstep.

A Louisiana legend, I am very sorry to hear this news. Im sure Travis could attest to her popularity there at LAD.

I absolutely LOVED her...
So sorry for her owner. Wasn't it Round Pond that she hooked up with in the Azeri at Oaklawn Park for the full 1 1/16 like a match race? [YES] Her loss in the Apple Blossom to Spun Sugar was the one where the kid let the balloon go and it floated across the track as the horses were heading down the stretch... http://www.thoroughbredtimes.com/bre...cket-dead.aspx Last edited by smuthg : 06-10-2009 at 03:55 PM.

I adored Happy Ticket and got to spend a bit of time around her when Leggio was in Barn 60 for the BC at Belmont in '05.
This is a very sad piece of news.

Oh no just tremendously sad, I too just loved everything about Happy Ticket right down to her name. Her campaign was just so much fun to watch, especially being a home state gal. (For those that don't know the story S. Madison named her for his friend that would buy bet vouchers and hand them out at the race track giving people a hopefully "Happy Ticket". That's what they called them. I remember them doing that.) S. Madison has so enjoyed handing out the Happy Ticket Stakes trophy at the FG, won't be the same this upcoming year. Sad for her connections, for her and for the LA bred legacy. R.I.P. sweet Happy Ticket....
