breakinglight11At 8:41 tonight, on January 30th, 2006, the esteemed Thoroughbred Irish Laugher passed away, at the age of not quite twenty-two.
Born March 17th, 1984 in Lexington, Kentucky, son of Bailjumper and Chatty Kat, dark bay with a blaze and hind socks, short at fifteen-two hands, raced for three years, with one win to his name, lately of Manito Equestrian Center. Missing his left eye, which inspired his nickname "Rish," nasty cribbing habit, tendency to bite, stormy disposition, and a hand gallop fit for a Macedonian king. Angry, brilliant, cunning, driven, hard-bitten and hard-biting, rakishly handsome, the partner of my efforts, the object of my most reverent adoration, and the truest soul I have ever known.
My Bucephalus.
My Rish.
