eclipse for mary lou
 

In the oldest mare dating youngest colt category?

They're married.

Is that what they are calling it now?

I realize. I'm sure it's love.

I don't know why but I just had a vision of this phrase on t-shirts and stuff. :D

How old is he? Isn't he like 30something? (I didn't know they were married).

Mary Lou Whitney is 85 and John Hendrickson is 45. They married in 1997.

Well I am just not up to date on things!:D

Seriously I had no idea they were married and I suppose pics I saw of him were from when he was a tad younger.

Kudos to Mary Lou. Very nice, she's very deserving. She loves and supports Thoroughbred racing. Nice to give a recognition award to Team Zenyatta, too.

:tro::tro::tro:

When Riot and I agree it's a rare moment.

Mary Lou Whitney has done a lot to revive Saratoga Springs. She is very philanthropic there and in many other causes. She's especially dedicated to helping the workers on the backside - she and her husband sponsor a huge dinner with entertainment every Sunday after the races for the workers and their families.

Her husband is especially devoted to her and was of tremendous help to her in recovering from a devastating stroke in 2006.

She is most deserving of a special Eclipse award.

She is very deserving, I am happy she got the award...and I appreciate what she does for the backstretch workers.
