he ran a cracker on international day. a bit disappointing the last time.. I think there is a big win in him still, but the trainer doesnt have much time.. hopefully, he gets a very pleasant retirement..

Tony Cruz has talked the owners out of it a few times now. Don't want anything to happen to him. He's done enough..... |

He'll be retired following the Sprint Cup on Sunday and will live out his days at Living legends.....
Very happy they're doing the right thing. It's about time. ![]() |

A champion in every sense of the word. May god shine on Silent Witness and let him live a fantastic life after racing. Hes earned it. Great career for a great horse.

Thanks for posting that.
I always admired Archie DeSilva and the way they managed the horse, also how outspoken he was about the greatness of his champion. I remember a few years back they wanted to match race Ghostzapper, would have been awesome. Farewell to a great horse.

this horse is so cool...I don't really follow international racing but I recall making a special effort to watch his races when he was on that crazy streak a few years back...I'm glad he's getting a happy home for retirement.
