Audio of Man O War funeral.

[Citation33]

There's been a lot of talk of Man O War on here recently,so I thought I'd post the audio of his funeral if anyone would like to hear it. Pretty interesting to listen to. Different world back then.

Citation33,

Thanks...that was cool...although for some reason, I got choked up:( Guess the Big Red horse still gets to me.

Oh my gosh. Thanks you for pisting this. And on my birthday, too!:jump:


I got all misty eyed, as well. It was Man O' War that, for some reason, drew me into racing and inspired me as no horse - and few humans! - ever could. Blame Walter Farley and his wonderful fictional biography of the original Big Red. ;)

To me, Man O' War was pure magic. I wish I could see such a horse in my lifetime!:eek:
