Three Chimney's Memorial to Seattle Slew

Here is the statute memorializing Seattle Slew at Three Chimney Farms in Lexington. Now Seattle Slew and his son, Slew o' Gold, can rest. Seattle Slew worked for 17 years in the breeding shed at Three Chimneys, but when he became older and unable to serve, he was sent to the peace and quiet of Hill 'n Dale, so that he wouldn't feel left out and he could rest on his laurels. They didn't want him to get all furious during breeding season at Three Chimneys! What a stud! He is buried at Hill n' Dale.

Namaste, you champions.
