Default Person of the Year (early nominees)
Thought this might be fun.

Please feel free to post anyone you see fit. (Uh oh).

My early nominee is Stephanie Clark, the owner of Silverfoot.

Check this out. Talk about flying at the end.

Too bad it's not in the video but this is what happened after...

A heartstopping moment, a lovely gesture... cheers to the old guy for winning, of all things, The Tin Man Stakes.
