Last chance for Tombstone.

Tombstone will forge his own destiny this weekend.  He's racing in the $50,000 Norton Shores Stakes at Pinnacle Race Course in Michigan and how he does will determine where his future lies.

The 4yo by Vampirical out of Shadowcat has been a stable favorite, but business is business, and he'll most likely make way for fresher talent if he cannot hit the board in this race.

"This is the nicest dang horse you'll ever meet.  I've never seen one with a sweeter disposition", Otsego owner Jim Webber confided as he leaned over the rail watching Tombstone on a morning breeze.  "It'd be a shame to see him go, but we're just not satisfied with what he's done on the track."

"It's a soft field so I certainly think he can contend for the win, but I'd be satisfied to see him on the board", Webber said  with a wistful smile.
