Vindex,
I remember him! He reminded me of the great Secretariat. Both of them were the complete package...stride, speed, endurance and stamina. Truly great horses!
I don't know how much you know about Cigar? He was another great horse. Win like 16 races in a row and win almost 10 million $. And could run anywhere. Del Mar & Santa Anita California, Belmont New York, Woodbine Canada, Dubai and win. Win the Breeder's Cup Classic and Dubai World Cup. The list is endless. A horse with a lot of heart! I went and watched him run a number of times including the Jockey Club Gold Cup at Belmont. As I previously mentioned my brother was his exercise rider. Here is a photo of my brother on Cigar at Belmont Park.
There's nothing like a horse! I don't know what God had in mind when He created it, but it was absolutely brilliant!
