Thank you for the well wishes.  Hope you and family have a wonderful day.  Not many races of interest to me today, even tho several tracks are running.

Have always thought it was interesting that Man 'o War's birthday was March 29 and Secretariat's was March 30.  I sometimes wear an aquamarine to honor them and also pair it with a diamond for Ruffian.  And always think of the significance of April 29, of course, for our Barbaro's birthday.  That is the anniv. of the deaths of Terlingua and Dynaformer.  I am a very sentimental person.

Strange how life and death intertwine…..my birthstone is Aquamarine, so I always remember.:)

Since March is upon us, an early Happy Birthday to you.

Thank you!

 New book that explores Secretariat as a sire!!  Just reading what is contained in this book makes me believe he has been underrated as a sire and broodmare sire
