I will never forget this day as long as I live. I will say for my mount that he did all I asked of him throughout the race.

Mr. Barbee keeps all of Mr. Hayes' mares. Ten Point, the second horse, was also raised on Mr. Barbee's farm. Donerail gets his name from Donerail, a flag station near Lexington on the Q. & C.
