Standardbred serves in Reagan funeral
Monday, June 7, 2004 - by Harness Racing Communications, a division of the USTA

When the eyes of the world are on funeral proceedings for the late President Ronald Reagan later this week, they'll also get a glance at a Standardbred at work. This one hasn't pulled a sulky in years, but will serve as the "riderless horse," symbol of a fallen leader, walking behind the caisson carrying Reagan's coffin.
