Yes, they officially retired him this past year at Oaklawn. He is one of the neatest horses I have ever been around. I introduced Barbara Livingston to him a couple of years ago (that's where the photo came from) and she just fell in love with him.

Talking Horse names.....

If I were a trainer, or owner in my wildest dreams of course, I would want a a horse that made things look simple. Who with each stride they took in each race, (wishful thinking) looked as smooth as silk on the track. If, in my wildest dream I had such a horse, I couldn't think of a more fitting name than Easy Goer! Anybody with me, if you all had a horse, wouldn't you want one that just did it with ease )?
I for some reason like Horse Chestnut for a name as well, I can't say why lol.
2 other names which IMO project strength and winner are Bold Ruler, and Point Given. Great horses as well.

Too Drunk to Call, who only seems to run in the winter at Aqueduct, cracks me up.

There was a horse running at Keeneland last year named something like harderfasterlonger....I have no idea how that one got by!

Linny was the stable name of my (late) great showhorse.

I like the name Still Guilty, by Successful Appeal x Oh Jay.

Dixie Normas is the name of a bar, I think it's in NOLA.

I own a piece of a filly named The Kielbasa Queen. Oddly enough she has sucked so far.
