Thanks so much for posting these, Steve! I thought I'd watch one part every so often, but once I got going, I hit them all back to back. It's addictive. I got goosebumps on seeing that stretch run for the millionth time. I have absolutely no doubt if I had a horse like that do what he did, I'd be crying like a little baby. No idea how Penny kept it together.

PS. I want that coat. So many colors. I hope he retired it after that broadcast.

Outstanding interview Steve, wish it could have gone on longer. It would be awesome to do an hour at the Spa hope he makes it up there. Great stuff, thanks.
