Legendary horseman and Hall of Famer John Nerud, who turns 98 on February 9 of this year, shares his thoughts on the future of the Breeders’ Cup.
Of his more than 1,000 winners, Nerud says that Tartan Farms’ Dr. Fager was the “only horse I ever had who could run,” and run he did. En route to his Horse of the Year title in 1968, Dr. Fager also earned Top Sprinter honors (1967-68), Top Turf Male honors (1968) and Top Older Male (1968). The colt’s 4-year-old campaign was considered one of the most remarkable in the history of horse racing, encompassing a world record 1:32 1/5 for a mile under 134 pounds in the Washington Park Handicap at Arlington Park and victories in the Roseben, the Californian, the Suburban, Brooklyn, Whitney, United Nations and Vosburgh.
Following a 44-year training career that ended in 1978, Nerud stayed with Tartan Farms as director of breeding and racing, and subsequently helped develop the Breeders’ Cup as chairman of its marketing committee. Although no longer actively involved with the year-end championships, Nerud counts last year’s Classic showdown between Horse of the Year Zenyatta and Blame as one of the most thrilling in the event’s history.
Nerud, who was enshrined in racing’s Hall of Fame as a trainer in 1972, went on to enjoy success as a breeder and owner, campaigning, among others, multiple stakes winner Fappiano and 1985’s Top Turf Horse, Cozzene. A resident of Old Brookville , N.Y. , Nerud received an Eclipse Award of Merit in 2007 and remains one of horse racing’s most respected and outspoken individuals.

A horse interrupts a car race, a poorly informed teenager decides to bike ride off a roof, and some kid really loves Vanessa Hudgens tits. Plus, if you could make any law, what would you make?

Zenyatta beats out Blame and Goldikova to take horse of the Year honors at the 40th Eclipse Awards on January 17, 2011.

Watch in HD!
*This video is dedicated to the amazing Zenyatta, her connections, and all of the people who love her just as much as I do.
My favorite racehorse Zenyatta won the 14th race of her career on Saturday in a breathtaking performance in the Breeders’ Cup Classic! She is the first female ever to win the race, and is undefeated in her 14 starts. Never mind Horse of the Year, she’s the Horse of the Decade!
Congratulations to all of Zenyatta’s connections, and thank you for allowing us to see such an awesome horse in action.
Witnessing this race truly was an experience that I will never forget.
