Note the part about the FBI.
Croll later said that they concluded he had been tampered with before the Derby.

This was a magnificent horse. His place in history diminished because his career ending injury coiinicided with the true assertion of Cigar, he slipped through the cracks.

Wish someone had the video of his Met Mile or Woodward or Travers.
Now this was a superhorse.

Pretty amazing, I wasnt aware the FBI contacted Croll...

I uploaded some of his races to Youtube...
