Another, we will never know how good he could have been.
I was at Sandown that day and it was one of the saddest things to see. In the straight in full view of the grandstand. It was like Pittsburgh Phil just knew he was in trouble and ever so slowly pulled up and dropped to the ground and died with the jockey still on his back.Truly tragic.
