lol. Hairy aye?

When I visited him at Vinery in 2000, he was basically the only stallion at the farm. All the others had shuttled but IC was too ill to ship. He looked gaunt and wasted away. They said he was a wobbler, which can be pretty devastating.

When I saw him in January or February of his 3yo year in 98, he was a pretty easy going and friendly horse in his stall. That pesky horse in the next stall though, Silver Charm, he seemed like he really wanted people to pay attention to him. He was cool too.

Anyways, that one picture you have of him, he looked really muscular again, which was nice. He didn't look like your typical fifteen year old horse.
