I thought it was missing....though whatever the case they weren't sure how he did it. He did it one night and they surmised he did it by rubbing against the fence.

I saw him a few times. The first time was 1994 and the last was 2003. He was somewhat mellowed by 2003 as they actually let me go to his stall. All the groom had to do was shake the bridle used for breeding, however, and he got all charged up.
