Default Randy Romero passes..

A profile in courage if there ever was one. His perseverance in the face of constant physical challenge won’t be equaled.

Pretty thrilling watching him on Go For Wand at Saratoga. The best of times that summer. Still remember the look of invincibility on his face going on the track for the Alabama. RIP Randy.
