With all that has been said about recent Hall of Fame inductee Somebeachsomewhere, words here could never do justice to his impact on the sport of harness racing.
Given my technical inclination, I felt that 'Beach' deserved something different. Something no other horse of his grandeur has received.
Today, as we celebrate the fourth birthday of Somebeachsomewhere, I have assembled a video gallery containing every race in Beach's career. It is the first time that all 21 of his starts - from his scintillating lifetime debut at Grand River Raceway to his swan song at the Meadowlands - have been available in a compilation.
The video gallery also includes two non-race videos - his March 2008 training trip at Truro Raceway and his 2008 season debut qualifier at Mohawk Racetrack.
For a career with so many performances that left our participants speechless, I'll cut the intro short here and let these videos do the talking.
