Holy cow was he a freak on the turf!

I think you are right about how much he meant to those around him being a positive. I just wish more trainers, jocks, and owners cared that much about the horse.

He won the damn Derby. Of course the freakin horse is going to mean a lot to those people. There are lots of people that love and care about their horses just as much as those people do, just without the limelight of being a Derby winner.
