Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 5, 2018 Journalists Share Posted July 5, 2018 Two-time graded winner Eye of the Tiger (American Chance-Dial a Trick, by Phone Trick) has been pensioned to Old Friends, the Thoroughbred Retirement Center in Georgetown, Ky. The 2003 GI Kentucky Derby fifth-place finisher was retired from racing in 2006 with five wins from 19 starts and earnings of $535,679 for breeder/owner John D. Gunther. He was pensioned from stud duty at the Gunther’s Glennwood Farm in 2016. The now 18-year-old arrived at Old Friends on June 27. “Eye of the Tiger he has been a long-time member of our horse family,” said Glennwood’s Tanya Gunther. “He deserves the serenity that this home will provide him, which was a challenge to do at our small farm with the constant hustle and bustle of mares, foals, and yearlings. “To know he will join the company of Classic horses such as War Emblem, Silver Charm, and Touch Gold makes me very pleased. Imagine the stories they will share? A big thank you to Old Friends, and we look forward to visiting him very soon.” View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
