Bruce has lived in Harlem all of his life. He nearly lost his life there too on several dozen occasions during his five-year career dealing drugs in the schools and streets.

Paul Mellon's wiry three-year-old lost by a neck to the magnificent California chestnut, Majestic Prince, in both the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness. The Prince was favored to take the Belmont Stakes and thereby become the first thoroughbred to win racing's Triple Crown since Citation turned the trick in 1948.
