This is probably one of those moments where you had to be there, but when Funny Cide ran at Saratoga there were lots of people pressed against the paddock rail all looking at Funny. Papi Chullo was being circled around the tree next to him and the groom yelled to the crowd: "Papi Chullo Fan Club - Free to Enter!"

RIP Papi.

He was a cool horse. The day I met him in the stakes barn and he was eating treats from my 3yo son's hand was great. Sorry to hear that he's gone.

Saw him run in the "Birdstone" in '07 (or was it '06?). Definitely a cool horse.
