Statement from the National HBPA on the passing of John Shirreffs:"John Shirreffs was the epitome of a horseman — an old-school horseman — and there’s no higher praise in our mind. John didn’t talk the talk about putting the horse first. He just did that, often out of the limelight with his medium-sized barn. But given the right horse, John’s patience and wizardry shined for all to see. He nurtured Zenyatta to a career that may never be matched and very well wouldn't have happened in another barn. He had 50-1 Giacomo at his best on the day that mattered most, and his work with Baeza, who had the misfortune to come along in the year of Sovereignty and Journalism, probably is under-appreciated. But beyond those headliners, John did right by all his horses, no matter their racing level. "John was a kind man who by all accounts was beloved by his employees. He was engaging, had a great wit and was a wonderful storyteller. Our heart goes out to his family, friends and staff. In this era of dominance by a few massive stables, John’s accomplishments may get overshadowed, but they shouldn’t. He will be in the Hall of Fame soon, and we’re just sad that deserving honor didn’t come sooner." ... See MoreSee Less
