How could you forget about Lemons Forever? I can't think of a single horse/race that threw you over the edge quite like that one!

He's even still listed as a colt in the offical chart of his 2nd New York race that season -- which was also his first turf race. The PP cut above was from the race prior to his first turf race.




9th place finisher Data Link was claimed out of that race ... he wasn't.

Got shot down on that one. Good thing you didn't tee off on me too bad.

I don't deserve it.

Interestingly .... this is the first race in his PP's where's he's listed as a gelding ...



I doubt they gelded him after a 15 length turf win... perhaps, his entire turnaround was the result of gelding him?

Lots of "high end" stables in there. Harbor View, Wygod, Seth Hancock etc. Of course $35k was a pretty solid price in '78.
