I can't even get my own trivia right. It was Mike Orman and not Jason who trained him.

The Curlin is Friday. I wish at least 3 of them were in the Dandy. I would give them a big shot over Gemologist.

The chart for that race (and his next start, 6-26-95) list "Orman, J." as the trainer. That would be Jason, right? Plus I remember it being Jason.

Uh yeah but the race is still named after the lake/town not the horse of the same name

It's a beautiful lake, well deserving of the honor, both of the race and the horse being named after it.

I believe the horse is actually now pulling tourists around in a cart around the lake

Lake George was one of the most beautiful race horses I ever saw.

I think the winner was probably 4th or 5th best all things considered. Better Lucky ran huge and so did Medolina who was way too close to the pace.
