Contessa- 4 years ago
He saved a horse that many of us knew well in NY... Golden Tent.
He was in a claiming race at Philadelphia (I think) for like 4 grand and Contessa claimed him just so the horse could be instantly retired. No more racing, the beautiful horse did enough, beating the best horses on the grounds at all 3 of the NYRA tracks.
For this Contessa is a good guy. I should have remembered this last weekend when Successful Affair blew by to get the win in the Gallant Fox, as curses came flying out of my mouth like George Carlin.
