Thanks for informing us Steve...

My condolences to the families and friends....

I remember both as being major forces on the NY racing scene for many a year.

Mom's Command was quite a race horse and Abby always rode her to perfection.

Also, Talc was one of my all-time favorites....

Again, my thoughts go out to both families at this time...

When I was stationed at Pease AFB, NH in 1968, my wife and I visited Mr. Fuller's horse farm in Seabrook, NH and saw Dancer's Image in his paddock.
Peter Fuller was a class act all the way, and he will be missed. There was talk at the time of the dq of Dancer's Image from the Derby purse that the Kentucky "good ole boys" were being vindictive because Fuller was a notorious civil rights advocate and had a long history of supporting liberal causes that didn't sit well with 1960's southerners.
