John Henry - San Marcos Hdcp 1980 

Just watch the bobbing shadow roll: that's our beloved John Henry! All heart and tenacity! XOXO

John Henry was a great horse. Saw him at Arlington Park.

John Henry gave us a look at greatness every time he stepped onto the racetrack....wow

GOAT

D. McHargue rode John Henry 11 times-- as many mounts on him as Shoemaker --and actually had 1 more victory on him ( 7) as did Shoemaker (6). Chris McCarron of course had the most mounts and victories on the great John Henry. 17 mounts... 8 victories.

John Henry was one tough S.O.B.,and I say that with the utmost respect.
