As long as I can remember, I've always enjoyed reading. When I was a kid, I loved reading books about famous racehorses. I had one about Man O'War that I treasured. In addition to photos, it had a lengthy discussion of his pedigree going all the way back to the 18th century. To this day, without any effort, I can tell you that he was by Fair Play out of Mahubah by Rock Sand, and that one of his ancestors was a horse with the odd name of Pot-8-O's. :)

Hahaha I read that too!! He is a descendant of the Godolphin Arabian. I can't imagine a horse named Pot-8-o's in this day and age, course there are some wierd names out there.
