Man O War

Today is the 93rd anniversary of the birth(foaling) of the greatest race horse of the 20th century, Man O War. He is considered by many experts and fans as the greatest thoroughbred ever and lost only one time and that was too aptly named Upset in the Sanford Memorial Stakes in 1919.

Here is nice little video with footage of the great horse.

Here is photo from the funeral of Man O War. The funeral was carried live nationwide on radio from Faraway Farms.
