21 of 41 lifetime, with 10 wins in 2012 tying him for most wins in the year in North America. Just shy of $1,000,000 in career earnings.

He was as game as they come and had a will to get to the wire first. Big loss for the game.

He shares that record with Cigar, right? Anyone else?

Terrible news.

Sad to hear the news today. He was one cool horse and I enjoyed following him. RIP big guy.

Very difficult atmosphere around the track as the news spread. The Drawing Away people were devastated as you'd imagine, especially as they deservedly have seen Saginaw as indestructible. But none of them are. Very sad. RIP.
