Title: Southwind Amazon
Post by: JT on October 30, 2024, 09:38:09 AM
He tied the modern day win total with Niffit with 137 wins. He is 14 years old and is 4 thousand short of banking 1.5 million in his career. A true war horse who did it the hard way which you don't see anymore.

Say what you want about Paul Holzman but he always has horses that race consistent for a long time.  I'm not saying he is an angel but what ever he does it's hurting the horses longevity and soundness.  Very good horsemen in my opinion.
