Funny to see WDW's name on here. My dad used to run horses at Fonner and Aksarben back in the day and I was sitting at the races with him and his buddies and asked who one of their more memorable horses were from that era they used to watch in person and all of them mentioned this horse. 54 itm finishes in 64 races...impressive.
