Someone (I think Cherie) told us that John's Call is still stabled in Saratoga, in the row of stables across from Sumwon, down all the way on the right.

Some interesting things I recall about JC:

John's Call was a $4,000 yearling who didn't win his first stake until age 8.

He raced over the hurdles at one time.

When Da Hoss returned from his 23 month layoff, he won a Colonial Downs allowance race by about a length, with John's Call running 2nd. The next month, Da Hoss won the Breeders Cup Mile for the second time.
