Sad news..Legend in the sport and one of my favorites over the years! Loved how he trained a racehorse...An old school hay and oats guy who understood that the rolling hills are where winners are made. In a world of suspect training he stood above all and remained successful year after year. Was lucky enough to have made a huge score on Angel Terrace in the Pin Oak @ Keeneland many years ago..You will be missed my friend, enjoy the time off you have surely earned it!
