“There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are messengers of overwhelming grief...and unspeakable love.” Washington Irving

So very very sad for all involved.
A warrior and a champion in every sense. RIP LITF...

Thank you for posting the painting Steve "a picture is a poem without words"

I really liked him. A friend told me he met the owner and he was this crazy but funny guy. Hopefully he gets another. I remember when people wanted him to run in the derby and he did what was right for the horse. Too bad Keyed Entry and Sinister Minister didn't have his owner/trainer.

R.I.P.- I give as much respect to the gutty gamers as much as the Champs. But he was both. He will be missed.

I started this season with eager anticipation to see two superstars perform...Barbaro and Lost in the Fog. It has not been a good season. In light of what we now know, Fog's win at Churchill this year may be the gutsiest performance any of us ever saw.

I don't care what anyone says, he was the fastest sprinter I've ever seen (mind you I'm young).. RIP Fogster.

I'm sure sad to hear the news about Foggy even though I was kind of prepared for it. It was interesting that it appeared here before it showed up anywhere else.
