Touch 'N' Fly was a $7,000 purchase by Burton Sipp at the 2003 Barretts January sale.

A horse in Burton Sipp's barn is like a girl having a blind date with Ted Bundy. Golden Gate should be slapped across the face for giving him stalls.

I found another one that got out alive. Greenland, a big strapping chestnut horse, was purchased around the same time as Touch 'n' Fly at a Barretts sale by Sipp. He was listed on Canter New England. Greenland is now listed as standing at a farm in Abbotsford, BC, Canada.
He is a good looking boy, and lucky.
