Yup, I miss him too, I felt bad after I found out that he had those tumors, I had jumped off his bandwagon a little bit, I still loved the horse and believed that he was really good, but I thought that maybe he just can't beat top competition. I think that I was wrong, I remember watching the replay on the Sam Spear show when he broke his maiden and then when he tourched them at Turf Paradise winning his first stakes. I'm hoping that Vicarino will carry on Fog's legacy, everyone keep an eye out for him.

Bigjag - Welcome to Derby Trail, good to have another person that appreciated Northern California racing... Do you go to Bay Meadows or Golden Gate often?

Hey derbycat, thanks for the nice words. I've actually been around alot, but don't post much anymore, I used to post under a different handle over on the espn.com board. Anyways, I grew up around Bay Meadows, but now I live in Fairfield so I go to our local simulcast at Vallejo, they have the Solano County Fair there. I haven't been out to BM or GGF in about a year but i've spent alot of time there. I Can't wait for BM to start up again so I can play some Friday's alive cards. lol
