Ack Ack was a pretty cool horse too (his sire). That horse could do anything!

they have a show on rfdtv that once had an episode with racehorses from days gone by. they showed video of the horses and some of their races-ack ack being one of them. i hadn't realized til that show that ack ack had been owned later in his career by a big hollywood celeb. they also showed round table, swaps, silky sullivan....


a second trivia question-who was ack ack's star owner?

He is, and always will be, my favorite horse. I grew up in Maryland and watched him run several times in person, including the absolutely crazy Pennsylvania Derby.
