He won by, oh, maybe half the track? ;-) I also had the great pleasure of meeting Harry Aleo at a TOC meeting at Bay Meadows a few years ago. Definitely we differ politically, but so what? There's room in this world for everybody, and I think there's a special place in heaven for horse lovers. Lost in the Fog was a great horse. Just to watch him move across the track--it was like he glided or was riding on rails. It just seemed effortless for him. I feel blessed to have been a witness to some of that grandeur. Can't wait to see the documentary.Joycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16591086260872019225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-934167006275624061.post-75453247602904160272009-01-15T08:47:00.000-08:002009-01-15T08:47:00.000-08:00a truly compelling story...i went to Bay Meadows w...a truly compelling story...i went to Bay Meadows with trainer Matt Chew, who was there to shoot photos for his wife Candice for a calender she was to design...we showed up at Greg Gilchrist's barn the day before he was to run his last race before the Breeder's Cup on October 1, 2005...for two days Greg and his staff allowed us full access to the great Lost in the Fog...Greg was a true gentleman and i even had a chance to meet and shake hands with Harry...from the moment the Fog left the receiving barn the atmosphere was that of a rock concert...Fog won for fun and those two days for me were very memorable...what a horse!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-934167006275624061.post-17614498068745959982009-01-15T08:15:00.000-08:002009-01-15T08:15:00.000-08:00I absolutely loved the film, "Lost in the Fog" and...I absolutely loved the film, "Lost in the Fog" and enjoyed reading the backstory, albeit both made me cry.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
