A Quiet Little Retirement

Top Bunk at his retirement party (wendyu)

I was just tooling around Flickr and found this nice little story.

Over the weekend a group of folks got together to retire 11 year old gelding Top Bunk, a hard knocking claimer at Hawthorne who was in the money 66% of the time!!! Of his 90 races, he was 21/23/16 with lifetime earnings of $575,000.

No doubt he’s off to get some much needed rest and relaxation, perhaps take up golf and shuffle board.

Best of luck to him and a big “well done” to the folks who retired him!
