Is there a proposed plan for his racing this year? Or are you taking things as they come?

Great to know he'll be in the entries in the near future.

In a time when so many retire too early, he is a breath of fresh air.

Well things will most likely move along slowly , he will prolly jog for a few weeks and then start galloping and see from there. It will all be up to him.

He seems pretty eager and happy and I think if things progress and he gets in shape and shows the same enthusiasm they will run him. The intention is to get him ready and see what happens.

Im a head banger , BUT , I do like and listen to all kinds of music.....I think the most beautiful song I have ever hear is Con Te Partio by Andrea Buchelli.
( Im a closet country listener, mostly older stuff )

Glad he's back, Honu. He's one of my favorites from last year. I'm partial to the geezers!
