Yes. He was a fun one to watch.

I saw him run at Hialeah way back when ('90 or '91).

I wondered whatever became of him, hopefully he got a nice retirement gig. He always tried and for a mid level claimer was very respectable.

Thanks, I didn't want to diminish his stellar career. My time remembering him was when he was racing at GP in the 35K - 50K claiming area, very nice career indeed.
