RIP Rocky !! Changed my life when I got the chance to meet him as a 2 yr old..

Who was it that ran up on him in the Remsen? I want to say either Galloping Grocer or Naughty New Yorker...this keg of Stella Artois has me forgetting ..

hated seeing the news, especially since he was doing well in PA, and we just lost his old man...

So terrible to hear about this. Poor Rocky, so young. Then the fact that we just lost Unbridled's Song makes it worse. I wonder if that new laminitis drug was even an option. The laminitis might've been chronic or too advanced already, or maybe the drug's still so experimental that access just wasn't possible outside of trials. Hopefully this will be a thing of the past soon.

Here he is at Darley in 2008. He was a grand looking stallion.
