Default SNS Up Close In Person

Went to Turfway today and a big part of my 2 hour drive south bound and down on I-71 to Florence, Kentucky was to catch this animal up close and personal.

I have not been around this game long nor have I been around alot of Horse flesh but with that said - I have yet to lay eyes on a more beautiful, gracious horse then SweetNorthernSaint. A question for those in the know, I noticed that his right front was wrapped heavily, everything ok?

i got my equibase update on junior college--didn't realize that his race today was the one that included SNS. i've been following the Ide gelding since last march, when he got me a nice hit at a very nice price at oaklawn.
nice win for junior. not so nice run for SNS.

Trombetta has had tremendous trouble keeping him right since after the Derby Trail last year. It's been a struggle.

If the Saint needs a home, I'm first in line. Such a nice horse and a shame he can't stay sound.
