Ruhlmann gelding, winning for the 15th time in 74 starts yesterday at Suffolk...at age 12! Up close in the paddock he looks like a 4 or 5 year old. It was a class drop for him, so maybe he can only win at this level now, but a very classy and game individual.

In another race at Suffolk, a 6 year old broke it's maiden. Patience is a virtue in this game.

Indeed it is.

Nice stories! Good that there are still tracks where oldsters can run and break maidens!

Wow. This guy is still running?

I remember when he ran at Monmouth Park. I think Dennis Manning was his trainer for a time. Good to see the old warriors still getting it done.

Wow, he's still running. One of my matings for a Canadian client.

Quality and game. I've watched many of his races, but thought that he'd finally been retired.

Wonderful
