Never approach a bull from the front, a horse from the rear or a fool from any direction. ~ Cowboy saying
There is something about riding down the street on a prancing horse that makes you feel like something, even when you ain't a thing. ~ Will Rogers

Please Me (1943)
Pedigreequery:
Please Me was the horse that George Woolf fell to his death in a Santa Anita race on January 3, 1946.
ETA: Info from Wiki
During the running of the fourth race at Santa Anita Park on January 3, 1946, Woolf fell from his horse as he rounded the clubhouse turn. Suffering from a concussion, he was taken to the hospital, where he died the following day. The jockeys in the race and the track stewards reported that they had not witnessed any incident during the race to have caused such a fall. Most observers think his diabetic condition may have resulted in his suffering a dizzy spell or fainting.
Western singing star, Gene Autry, sang at his funeral.
