Cigar's past performances. Just to clarify it was 3 grades 1 win's he toted highweight, not including the Citation challenge and the Mass Handicap where he carried 130lbs during the streak. His last 13 races he carried anywhere between 124lbs to 130lbs.

Which three races?

The Pimlico Special, The Hollywood Gold Cup, and The Donn Handicap.

You're right about the Pim Special; he gave a pound to a couple. In the Hollywood, do you remember what Best Pal carried?

You got me there, I don't remember how much weight Best Pal carried that day, I do know on Cigar's website it quoted him as highweight..he wasn't a factor that day, the fun thing about this topic is viewing some of these races again on youtube. That Hollywood Gold Cup was one of the more memorable one's I recall, contrast that to today and you say racing was great then.
