From the keynote speaker to the final inductee, the message was the same Aug. 4 at the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame ceremony. That plain and simple mantra was, 'It is all about the horse.'
Though certainly not a coordinated effort, guest speaker Dean Richardson, DVM, Dipl. ACVS, who spoke first, and inductee trainer Carl Nafzger, who was last on the agenda, bookended the others on the program at the 90-minute induction at the Humphrey H. Finney Pavilion in Saratoga Springs, N.Y.
Richardson, a noted equine surgeon, is the Charles W. Raker professor of equine surgery at the George D. Widener Hospital at the New Bolton Center in Pennsylvania

urlin to race next on dirt at Saratoga
1 hour ago
LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) Curlin's majority owner says the 2007 Horse of the Year is going back to a dirt track for his next race later this month.
Majority owner Jess Jackson announced Tuesday Curlin's next race will be the Grade I Woodward Stakes on Aug. 30 at Saratoga in upstate New York. Jackson said the move shouldn't indicate that he has abandoned the experiment of running the horse of turf.
As for the future, Jackson says he hasn't ruled out running Curlin again next year if purses are hiked
