If that doesn't kill Bobby then nothing will.

Frankel's illness is not to be mentioned on this website.

At least now everyone can see exactly why Frankel wanted the illness kept quiet.

Did Frankel tell you personally? Apparently the heads of Santa Anita Park didnt find anything wrong with showing support. There is a difference between that and openly talking about his actual illness

Here's a thought... If anyone here wants to personally reach Frankel with an expression of concern and wish for his health, you can send it to me and I will see that he gets it.
Bobby Frankel c/o At the Races 157 Main St. Greenwich, NY 12834

I volunteered to interview him for an 8 pager my friend ran in New York about 10 years ago. He gave me exactly 10 minutes (which is 10 minutes longer than I thought I'd get). I figured I'd try and warm him up by talking about Brooklyn and the old neighborhood. We talked about that for almost a half hour and I never got my interview! Guess that communications degree was a waste.

One more Bobby Frankel story... I was standing with Sean Clancy waiting for Barbaro to train at Keeneland before coming down to Louisiana Downs. Frankel was next to us talking basically hanging-out, talking about racing etc.
Anyway, a horse came down the walkway with his blue saddle cloth and he said, "Someone asked me if I thought this horse was the next Ghostzapper." He then chuckled a bit and said, "There aren't very many Ghostzappers." I was never able to figure out who he was talking about, which is a shame, but a nifty story none-the-less.

I was hanging out with Frankel one day when I was a lot younger ....
and he looks at me and goes .. "I'm not sure if you're the world's best handicapper yet ... but you damn sure are the sexiest!" I had a The Fat Man moment and was all like ... "Bobby, you're soooooo a master of the obvious!"
