I adored Happy Ticket and got to spend a bit of time around her when Leggio was in Barn 60 for the BC at Belmont in '05.
This is a very sad piece of news.

Oh no just tremendously sad, I too just loved everything about Happy Ticket right down to her name. Her campaign was just so much fun to watch, especially being a home state gal. (For those that don't know the story S. Madison named her for his friend that would buy bet vouchers and hand them out at the race track giving people a hopefully "Happy Ticket". That's what they called them. I remember them doing that.) S. Madison has so enjoyed handing out the Happy Ticket Stakes trophy at the FG, won't be the same this upcoming year. Sad for her connections, for her and for the LA bred legacy. R.I.P. sweet Happy Ticket....

My heart is crushed. My husband and I went to LaD for Louisiana Champions Day specifically to see Ticket. I was able to get some nice pictures of her, many of which I had blown up and are hanging in my living room.
She always showed up to run and her throwdown efforts are what I will always remember about her. Gone way too soon, pretty girl.
