I understand he was put on life support this weekend.

I know many here don't follow QH racing, but send some good prayers and thoughts toward this legendary trainer.

Winter T... that is sad news...he is one of the greatest QH trainers, and from what I've read...a classy man.
I don't follow the QH racing anymore since I quit raising Appendix QH's, but followed his horses closely when I was raising my foals...

my prayers go out to his family and close friends.

I recently listened to a recorded interview of Mr. Schvaneveldt on the radio. Seems like a very nice man and a wonderful story teller. My prayers go out to him and his family.

Sad, sad day for horse racing. One of the most talented and passionate trainers the game has known. He will be missed greatly. RIP and my prayers go out to the family.
