Aiken Horse Returns Home After Dream Season
The 1948 Aiken trained colt Blue Peter, winner of eight of ten starts including the Saratoga Hopeful and Belmont Futurity, is laid to rest under the finish line oak at the Aiken Training Track. Owned by Joseph M. Roebling and trained by Andy Shuttinger, he was ridden by Eric Guerin and admired as Derby favorite. Trainers note travel fever and penicillin as he died after arriving by van.
