Lost In The Fog And The Best Horse Racing Interview Ever

Lost in the Fog won his first 10 starts and the ninth of those wins came in August 2005 at the King’s Bishop Stakes at Saratoga. The colt was owned by Harry Aleo, a World War II veteran who fought in Battle of the Bulge. Aleos didn't like being interviewed before the races.

Aleo is annoyed with ESPN reporter Quint Kessenich who asked him about the current price of a horse.

Aleo is selling his horse. He is not interested in a price tag. Kessenich asks him about his life experiences. Aleo compares his experiences with the horse and the baseball, and with his battle in World War II.

Lost in the Fog won the King's Bishop at the Breeders' Cup Sprint at Belmont in 2010. After a six-month layoff, he would come back and win one of his final three races before he was diagnosed with cancer and laid to rest at Golden Gate Fields in 2006. Aleo died two years later at age 88.
