Mike, my favorite "Superstar" was Silk Stockings. I remember a jam packed Monticello Raceway when that amazing filly paced 157.3 in the 1st Monticello-OTB Classic in 1975. Preston Burris, Jr., a driver not very well known to the fans made history as she whipped a really good field of horses. A great day for a "Superstar"!
