Skip Away;

Skip Away: my personal favorite of the racehorses of the 90s. Not just because he's a gray, but because he was so great. I have this big poster of his '97 Breeder's Cup Classic run. Just his stride made your eyes open in wonder.... I was so happy for Skippy and his trainer and owner: Sonny and Caroline Hine, when Skip Away was voted Horse of the Year in 1998. He truly deserved it. Skip Away, however, did loose the last two races of his career, the Jockey Club Gold Cup and the '98 Breeder's Cup Classic. Skip Away may not have gone out a winner, but by me and many, he always will be....
