The King of Pimlico

Clip: 05/19/2011 | 4m 42s

At 78, King T. Leatherbury has seen it all. He's been around long enough to know that his sporthas changed dramatically over the last half-decade that he's been a trainer.

Yet his stable has slowly been emptying over the years and the "King of Pimlico" now says he's just hanging on with the few horses he has left.
