What about poor Gay Dalton?

Guess vulture/scumbag Liebau doesn't give a damn about him ... parking lot bound?

I know he's buried there ... Whether they know exactly where they planted him? Who knows?

One would think there should be some kind of record of it somewhere.

Oh, yeah, he needs to be found as well, this whole situation is such a damn shame...

I have searched high and low for info on exactly where Gay Dalton was buried with no luck.

I did however, find a newspaper article about him with a head shot that some may find interesting.

Glad Native Diver is going to Del Mar. He's in that pantheon of wildly popular California horses, right up there with Seabiscuit and Zenyatta, and deserves to have his monument remain where fans can visit him.

When I was a little girl,  I read all the Bob Farley books and Native Diver was my "black stallion."

Of course,  at that age I didn't know the difference between a stallion and a gelding.  ;)

I would have a great comeback for that but I don't want to offend anyone,  especially you!  :tongue:

CBS News did a short piece tonight on the transfer of the remains of Native Diver from HP to Del Mar.
