He founded Aiken-based Dogwood Stable. Among the champions that carried his green-and-yellow silks were 2013 Belmont Stakes winner Palace Malice, 1990 Preakness winner Summer Squall and 1996 Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies winner Storm Song, who won the Eclipse Award as the nation's champion 2-year-old filly.

Dogwood had eight Kentucky Derby entrants from 1990 to 2013, and its best finish was second with Summer Squall in 1990.

Spent 10 minutes talking with him at Keeneland one day. He was waiting for someone to come and get him. He was escorted to a seat by some young men who helped him with the stairs.

Ten minutes later his horse won at at 47-1 if I remember right.

He was smiling in the winners circle...........

He was an important figure. He created forms of collaborative ownership that brought a lot of smaller players into the ownership game.
