I have a program here with Prod in it.

I remember when that race was called the Nijana. I like keeping old races named after horses. It somehow connects the sport to it's history. As lovely as Lake Placid and Lake George are, they really have nothing to do with racing.

How about this , TB Record Nov 6th 1976.
Article on Tex Sutton horse transport includes a pic of Foolish Pleasure "retired milionaire" debarking from his last flight.
The NY article by John Pricci featured My Juliet "Showing the Boys How it's Done" in the Vosburgh. My Juliet managed to finish ahead of 3 classic winners (Bold Forbes, Master Derby, Avatar) that year. The photo shows Anthony Black appearing to holding on for dear live as My Juliet crosses the wire in 1:21 4/5.
