Serena's Song: Still Going Strong at Denali at 27
There were few people more visible in the highest echelons of the sport of horse racing in the 1990s than Bob and Beverly Lewis. The California couple spent large sums at the yearling sales and were rewarded with six champions-including two Kentucky Derby winners-in the span of 10 years. But it is likely they are most remembered for their copious volumes of grace and class. Bob and Beverly were married for 58 years before Bob's passing in 2006, and they developed similarly loyal relationships with those they employed in the Thoroughbred industry. In a 2017 TDN story following Beverly's death, trainer Bob Baffert said, “They may have been the only owners in racing who no one ever minded losing to. They were both so well-liked and such nice people.” Kelsey Riley visits with their most famous horse, Serena's Song, who is still happy and healthy at Denali Stud at the age of 27.
