Review: Thoroughbred Times Racing ALmanac
This belongs on every racing fan's desk. So much useful information in
such a convenient, compact form. Great bang for your buck and we strongly
recommend it to everybody involved in racing.

Vindication vs. Toccet for 2yo Eclipse
SURFSIDE97BF writes," Vindication beat Kafwain easily by 2 3/4. Toccet was
all out to beat the same horse by a head. Vindication has beaten the likes
of Kafwain, Hold That Tiger, Bull Market, Van Nistelrooy, Tomahawk, Toccet,
Whywhywhy, and Zavata. Toccet has beaten Whywhywhy, Zavata, and Kafwain. In
their lone head to head, Vindication trounced Toccet. Good horses overcome
bad posts."

Secretariat memorabilia sold
CLASSICK88 writes. "Reading the David Cross item, I know this is old, but
I think I am still frustrated that Penny Chenery sold off so much of
Secretariat's trophies, bridles, blankets, etc. and now it's all in the
hands of private collectors. Did she say this was for the fans? How many
fans could afford any of that! Wouldn't it be great if we could all go to
the Kentucky Horse Park or the Hall of Fame and see all of this in a
collection? Now that will never be able to happen."
