Tapit Shoes - 12/3 FG 7th - memories!
A horse named TAPIT SHOES just won the 7th race at Fair Grounds today. He ran greenly in the stretch and seemed to have an interesting way of running. He's a 2yo half brother to CYBERKNIFE.
What struck me about him was that in my very first "Derby Trail" - 1981 - the great Horatio Luro trained a Derby contender named TAP SHOES - who I remember having something "different" about the way he ran. Although I can't recall what it was.
Got me wondering if the name had any "throwback" significance.
