Rest in peace Loosh.. One of the best here in NY in the golden era of harness racing.. Loved his fiddle use of the whip in his stretch drives..

RIP---sounds like Lucien  had many great horses and proof of his greatness lies in the fact he was a HOF horseman and lived a life well lived.He will be missed.

Rip Loosh. I’m old enough to remember Clint and Billy when Haughton was spelled with an a.

RIP Loosh, what a crowd you will be joining. Real horseman and women from a bye gone era. And nobody really gives a shit anymore about the stars oft he past

How is this relevant to Lucien passing away?

Relevance or staying on topic is not a requirement to post on Plop

I still hear Gil Levine's call with Forrest Skipper & Hothead. I was down by the winner's circle watching that race, and nobody was sure who had won it because of the angle we were on. The whole place went crazy when Gil said Hothead's coming to him, but it wasn't meant to be. RIP Lucien!!
