The best days of my childhood were spent leaning on the rail at Ellis Park rooting for him to beat his nemesis Vodika Collins He had a very productive career, even running in the 1981 Ky Derby. He went to stud in Canada and the last i could find was that he was at Shannandoe Farm. I sent them a letter asking for information but i didn't get any response. If i could get my hands on a picture of him in the winner's circle it would be a treasured posession to be sure. If anyone knows of a source for information on past runners please let me know.
Thanks!

Nice story... good luck to you. Hope you find what you're looking for.
