Who was CATNIP?? It's important to know. A very kind and intelligent horse. Lovely to be around. Strikingly tall, dark and handsome. Not one vice. Loved to run. Carrots were his weakness. Bred and raised by caring and conservative owners-had frequent visits to the farm here just for grass and R&R. Never had a single surgery. An easy keeper. Adored and pampered. Loved his morning stretching exercises. Thrived at Meydan during Dubai Week. And then...a trip and a hard fall in the tight pack at the finish of the Turf resulting in an irreparable catastrophic rare radial (forearm) fracture. In an instant, gone. Devastating to lose any horse whether its in the field, on the racetrack, over a jump. Those of us who knew and cared for him will never get over it...💔

We are heartbroken to share the news of my Dad’s passing. To say his was a life well-lived would be an understatement. We were lucky for the time we had with him and will miss him tremendously

How to inspire young fans, mid-'70s version.
I fell deeply and forever in ❤️ with a horse named Sip Sip Sip, simply because in 1971 a photo of him winning at Aqueduct appeared in the NY Times.
Such a name! I was 10.
He remains my all-time favorite.

@DRFLivingston @TheNYRA I’m sure he thoroughly enjoyed hearing from such a young fan! I was so happy to see your post. Hope you’re doing well.

@AlanQuartucci @TheNYRA Wow! Alan, I had no idea, and how wonderful!
Mr. O'Grady made me feel so very special with both this and another Sip Sip Sip-related letter in the 1970s. I wrote him more than once and, if his eyes rolled when he received another letter, it didn't show in his kind response!...
