Isn't that amazing? And thank goodness he has the CI's to fall back on in case Ushers takes his sight. I have a friend from college, Liz Stone, who got a CI for that very reason. I believe her brother also has Ushers and received a CI as well.

I missed the race (was out working) and was just horrified when my Dad had told me what happened to Eight Belles. Made me think of the breakdown of Go For Wand at the 1990 Breeder's Cup, which has always stuck in my mind, as I actually had bet on her to win. May Eight Belles rest in peace, and run forever in green pastures.
