2005 Eclipse Sprinter of the Year!
"LOST IN THE FOG"
The 2005 Eclipse winner and a favorite and one of racing's
most popular race horse has lost his battle against cancer.
We are sorry to report that "LOST IN THE FOG" was
euthanized after a battle with advance cancer.We can only remember him as a champion, especially when we now realized he bravely raced
with these tumors. We will miss him but will always remember him for his heroics and dream he all gave
us while he was with us. And
to the many fans who have experience the excitement and thrill of this truly one of a lifetime race horse. He
is now stabled at his home in Albany, California at Golden Gate Fields.We are all sadden by this turn of
events.
I only
hope we will keep his spirit alive in all of us who have ever witness his remarkable achievements. Early last year when
I started researching this work I was personally escorted by both trainer and owner in being introduce to "Lost
in the Fog" at his stable at Golden Gate Fields. He struck me immediately as quite a personallity and appeared that
he like my attention as I study him and took photos. "
In this
painting I decided to show him breaking through the fog at the Golden Gate bridge near his home base, leaving
all the others contenters behind, as he did many a time. I'm just glad that through this art it will him along
with his exitement he brought us all. These champions only come rarely in our lives if ever. We were lucky
to have him for those moments.
In addition,
Delgado a is deeply sadden and wishes his condolences to Mr. Aleo's family for his recent passing. We will all
miss him and the class he brought to the racing community.
I'm sure there's a winner's circle waiting for "The Fog" and
I'm sure Mr. Aleo will be there along his side." DELGADO
