John Shirreffs, based in California, didn't run horses at Saratoga often. But he did train Baeza to a 3rd-place finish at the Belmont Stakes and 2nd in the Jim Dandy at the Spa last year. Shirreffs won the 2015 Curlin Stakes at Saratoga with Smart Transition.

@saratogaspecial @SaratogaTL Terry's final column for the @saratogaspecial is a superb glimpse into his personality and exceptional writing, even at the ripe age of 80.
And it's loaded with legitimate advice for sportswriters and press, especially newcomers.
