I hate the "he didnt face anyone" agruement. I think no one came to race against him. He competed in different states, at different distances and flew all over the place. To me, he went to the races and raced. He didn't sit back and wait for the perfect race. He was truly special.

He was "lightning in a bottle" and was taken too soon...saw him win the King's Bishop and saw his only bad effort in the BC Sprint. The video tribute done for him at Bay Meadows was great...brought a tear to my eye.

I had a program today at the OTB and still pleasantly noted the Golden Gate Fields track record holder for 6 1/2 furlongs.

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.
