We should all live to 94. RIP.
It's still a very vivid memory in my mind when Timely Writer went down. I still have the program.

Dom was a great guy. he was training for Frankie Bertolino before they became Monarch Stable. They used to be San Fran Stable back then. A lot of greenbacks left Saratoga heading for Boston after he won the Hopeful with Timely Writer. Those Orange silks flying by everyone on the outside....Touchdown.

how much do you think they took down in his maiden claiming win at monmouth that paid $16 first time out?

Franny Martin, another guy in the beef business owned Timely Writer with Frank. Ambrose Pascucci was the excercise rider in Ocala before he came up norht.

Bertolino got a lot of nice horses this year that are in New York with David Fawkes. he should have a huge year. hopefully we see Wildcat Frankie return at the spa.

Dom had a box near where I sit at CRC, the last I saw him was just before the GP meet, he sure didn't look 94. Land of milk and honey has to be the answer.
