Go Johnny, 7 years old, today at Exeter.
Rest in peace. Excerpt, Comments (Racing post)..... CRYSTAL D’AINAY has his quirks but Alan King’s useful stayer quite readily took advantage of a gilt-edged opportunity in a race where favourite Minella Tiperrary disappointed and Go Johnny took a fatal early fall. The former high-class staying hurdler missed last season with a leg injury and disappointed on his reappearance, but the way he reeled-in top weight Eric's Charm before dossing in front indicates much of the old ability is still there. His trainer Alan King ruled-out the Welsh nationaland will allow him to 'do his own thing' in a chase-only campaign. |

His name was Green in Blue.
He was 7 years old, eternal Class 3 boy. Gelding who had come from Ireland and raced the past 3 seasons in HK. His first season wasn't stellar, but he improved in 06 - 07. In 11 runs he was first once, 2nd twice, 4th twice and 5th once which actually matters there because of the point structure. This season he had 4 starts, winning once in a race no one thought he could..... a lot of the others were rated in the mid-70's and he was about ten points down. He did it though... huge longshot. Beat some nice horses home like Liaobuqi and Courageousheart, South Breeze and Maninthemirror. This season, in 3 runs, he managed to pick up 5 points which is pretty good. I didn't see the race where he brokedown the other day, all I know is they tried and couldn't save him. This was the only horse Mak Yun Chak owned, was trained by Woods, ran 40 times, and was often workout partner to Visionario and Prideoftheorient. * * * Queena..... http://breeding.bloodhorse.com/viewstory.asp?id=42871 * * * Jump Rope Girl..... http://www.pedigreequery.com/jump+rope+girl Rest in peace.

Aqueduct 12/28, Five Wonders was racing toward the rear when she broke down leaving the three-sixteenths pole in the fourth race. Jockey Mike Luzzi was thrown to the track before making an effort to corral the stricken filly, who was euthanized on the scene. Luzzi was not injured.
