I know it seems a bit macabre but does anyone know where on Man O War farm (former Faraway) Man O War was originally buried ?
I’ve already forgotten, even though I just read it, but it was in one of those articles on DRF which ejm posted above. I think it was the one by Barbara Livingston.
Happy Birthday to Big Red! Thanks for this thread, Shammy.
Now I’m hearing the opening of that first chapter of Walter Farley’s novel … the fictional Danny Ryan walking down the country road that spring night, on his way to Mahubah’s barn …
My mother got to see him once, in his later days, which to me is as thrilling as my getting to see the Beatles in concert.
