Letters to the Editor: Put Sadler in Hall of Fame

John Sadler | Benoit

First of all, I want to congratulate Shug McGaughey on the Travers win. Shug worked for me when we were both young men starting out and I couldn't be happier for him. Great horseman. Another great horseman, who I have been around since his start, is John Sadler. I moved my stable to California in 1977 and when John started training we shared a barn at Santa Anita. We were together in that barn until I changed careers at the end of 1988 and moved into the bloodstock business. I recognized, immediately, that John was a complete horseman. One of the best that I have been around in my 49 years in this industry. All that he ever lacked was quality stock. When you ran against Sadler you had to have your horse at his best because you knew that his would be. John Sadler belongs in the Hall of Fame. Period.
