Bloodhorse issue when Najran equaled world mile record wante

I know this is a weird request but I would be interested in buying that bloodhorse issue when Najran on the cover when he equaled Dr Fager's record mile if anyone may still happen to have it. He did it in winning the Westchester Handicap in early May of 2003 I believe. I dont remember for sure but I def would think that it made the cover. My email address is [email protected] Thanks

I have the issue, and while it's not for sale, I can give you some details that might help you out. :)

I'm afraid Najran's feat did not warrant a mention on the cover - in fact, Ryan Fogelsonger is the cover feature. There's a small photo in the news section, with a caption detailing the record....plus he rates a few paragraphs in the Belmont Park recap, and the usual writeup in the Stakes Winners section.

If you're still planning to hunt it down, it's the May 17, 2003 issue, no.20. Good luck! :)
