Great Man. Great Horse. Great Story. A true rags-to-riches story of how a Man and a Horse can do so much for one another. Won over fans and industry participants alike. A combo that everyone had to cheer for, because it was horse racing at it’s best. Our condolences to his family and loved ones. RIP Tom McCarthy.
