This is a wonderful tribute to a track pony at Churchill Downs.

RIP Jack, it sounds like you were very loved and will be missed. Great story.

A very fitting and lovely tribute to a much loved lead pony. I watch the antics of the TBs in the post parade, warmup and to the gate and much admire the steady nature of those wonderful lead ponies.

As in the case of so many of those ponies, he knew his job. He just seemed to know it better than most, and have the patience of Job.
