My initial recollection of Dan Patrick at the racetrack dates back to 'BELMONT DAY' at Belmont in 1984. I was entrusted with the responsibility of escorting him during the morning training session. His team (MSG) was delayed. Patrick came across a novice, myself, at the tote pole. Patrick was notably inexperienced. The sole remnant of his misadventure 😪 was a tote bag given by Bob Curren.
