HEAVY TRAFFIC PASSES ON

Postby louis finochio » Fri Sep 30, 2005 2:15 pm

This AM I went by Bruce Headleys barn to check on one of my favorite TB Heavy Traffic. HT groom Juan told me that after HT worked on Thursday he was bleeding from the mouth and nose, before they could ge him to the hospital he died from a ruptured artery.

HT was related on the bottom side to Shamardal and Street Cry, 2 superior runners. Rest in peace HT, I'll miss you in my AM rounds.

Louis,

This is the 4yo colt by Elusive Quality? . . . . . . . . what a shame.

When I read that my first thought was . . . . just like Siphonic and much to young . . . . . . .

Rest in Peace Heavy Traffic

So sorry Louis. . . . . . .
