Tomlinson's long time friend trainer Bob Dunham will join us on ATR tonight to talk about "Artie"... Tomlinson's real name was Art Kaufman.

Default RIP Lee T

I had the pleasure of attending a handicapping seminar with Lee (Artie) in October 2003. I struck up a continuing correspondence with him and enjoyed our conversations. He was a classy gentleman.
My regret is that I never got to attend one of his international racing tours. I am truly sorry that Lee passed on and he will be missed greatly.

oh those wonderful days of having the beyer #s before they were in the form as well as the new Tomlinson guide pre racing form days. Those brightly colored books with their unusual long thin shapes. I remember tomlinsons advice to look at them as you would a baseball batting avg. above 300# very good, get past 350 to the max of 450 bet a bit heavier still. glad to hear how nice a guy he was. may he rest in peace. and wherever he may be I hope he can pick the ponies--that he loved to do so much
