Wow! Cool fact! Thanks Steve.

BTW, while on the subject of the Mosses, I hope they are awarded 2010 owner of the year at the eclipse awards. They do so much for the industry!

I feel they set such a good example for other owners to follow.

They set a good example for others by having the horses best interests in mind. For example, they did right for Zenyatta by not rushing her to the Races but allowing her to grow into herself. They showed others that you shouldn't retire horses when they still want to run! They could have retired Zenyatta last year but they didn't! And what a difference that extra year made! Her popularity reached new heights and she brought so many new fans to the game!

The Mosses were so wonderful about letting people have access to their superstar mare! Having a great horse brings people to racing but I feel that the horses owners were also a big part of the horses appeal.

The Mosses donate constantly to Old Friends, which most people don't know, and they take care of all of their horses. Making sure they all find a place to live out their days.

They were at the center of the game this year and they were such great spokesman for horse racing. The Mosses certainly attracted new fans to the game! They deserve to be honored.

Wrote it on here first and than I thought it wasn't really what this thread was about so I started a new thread to debate my thoughts on The subject.
