Help with Research

Postby coolxcolors » Wed Jan 25, 2006 12:45 pm

I'm trying to find everything I can (photos, race records, lineage, etc) on my gelding.

His racing name was Sullivan's Law and he was based out of the now demolished Garden State Park (Cherry Hill, New Jersey).

Anything you can help me with would be awesome! Thanks!

He's in the db here - Sullivan's Law. Raced 4 yrs incl. as a 2yo, 54 starts, 7 wins, 9 seconds, 6 thirds. A sprinter, his best finish at 1mi + was third (3x). He apparently didn't mind mud - 14-3-2-2 in the slop.

Hi,

Attempt the easier stuff first:

Dec. 20, 1987 he won at Penn National

Nov. 26, 1987 he won at Philadelphia Park

all of his other wins were at Garden State Park

see if someone at either of the former tracks can tell you how to track down the track photographer from way back then

If you find any connection to the track photo person at Garden State then there are five more dates you could use to buy pix.

wow thank you guys so much!

I'm def. gonna track down a photographer. I am going to start at Philadelphia Park because Garden State was torn down a few years ago.

One last question. Is there any chance you could help me figure out where he was foaled?

Thanks again, you guys rock!
