Three Chimneys held their traditional Derby week open house, and I was glad of the opportunity to see Gun Runner in retirement for the first time after following him to several tracks and making the trip to Florida for the Pegasus World Cup just to see his career finale. He seems to have as calm a demeanor as ever, and his stride and its efficiency of motion stood out as always, reminding me of a panther walking.
