He was one of my favorites. Will never forget when he won the Greenwood Cup at Philly Park as a ten year old, he went out a champion.

Condolences to owner Joe Grant. That gentleman provided free server usage to me and this board for several years and for that I will always be grateful.

In that last race at Philly Park I was at Aqueduct and sent in a considerable win wager on fan fave EVENING ATTIRE and watched the race on TV with a middle-aged woman who wanted to see her favorite runner race one last time. The old champ wasn't the fave but he raced like one that day and we were overjoyed.

RIP to a fun horse. Greg, and Larry, I too remember his Pa derby, he was third choice in the wagers. Came lumbering out of the gate as usual, picked up the pace late, and made me a bunch of money.
