Its was with a s mot z in his name..sounded like Velazquez though

[EPM]

 it happened around 1990..maybe 89

[EPM]

Just doing some looking up..Venazia died in 88 on the track

[EPM]

Nothing on Vasquez yet but i will find it..88 is when i 1st started betting t breds so that explains why i didnt know Venazia..missed him by a few monthd

[EPM]

See in 1981 7 jocks testimony about race fixing jean Cruget ,codrero,Venazia,Valazquez a few others..didnt read whole thing yet but.

[EPM]

Im thinking maybe it was Venezia i saw get stepped on..Velazquez prob was on the horse that stepped on him..Wheres Harvey Pac when you need him

I remember those days well. Went to the "Big A" at least twice a week. I thought it might have been the best jockey colony ever. They hardly ever cancelled a card due to weather. LOL! The winter meet was always my favorite time to head out to the track. The inner dirt track always was speed favoring and the early splits were always quick. Speed horses cut the corner on the far turn and opened up in the lane. LOL!

[EPM]

Few names i remember..Yonkel Yonkel,Mean Streak,Mean and Crafty....pretty good horse think was True and Blue 99 percent sure that was him name..blue something 4 sure...hell yeah the inner was speed favoring

[EPM]

Towtruck, you got some great memories like i do. I graduated South Shore HS, Kingsborough, and the Brooklyn College. I made a lot of friends from Sheepshead Bay. I loved Joe's Clam Bar and Roll N Roster. I hear it's still pretty expensive to buy a house in that area.

I went to school with the Randazzo's. Prinni passed away not long ago.R&R still rocks! I love Stella Maris Bait and Tackle still at the end of the fishing boats.Fat Robert across the street from SS high, a great Deli!
