"Over Fifty years ago the great Man O'War passed away at the age of 30 as the result of a failing heart. His lifetime companion and groom, Will Harbut, had died only a month earlier. He was embalmed and lay in state for several days in a specially made casket lined with his racing colors, the first horse ever buried this way. As many as 2000 people attended his funeral, lining up for one last look or a pat on the neck and racing fans all over the country mourned him. Today his grave is marked by the famous Man O'War statue by Haseltine at the Kentucky Horse Park."
