If anyone has old racing magazines and can scan a pic of Eillo, please do.

I dug out my 1985 BH Stallion Directory but while he did have a page, he didn't have a photo. I found one picture of him on the internet so far but its black and white. Do you have that one?Originally Posted by Cigar
I've done some looking around too but nothing so far. I can't tell if Mr. Cohen is still living or active, but maybe you could contact him or his family. There's bound to be at least winner's circle photos of him somewhere, maybe Monmouth or the Meadowlands could help. Good luck. It's a terrible shame Eillo succumbed to colic just a month after his BC win, and undoubtedly that's one reason it's hard to find photos of him.

Sure. Any photo is better than nothing. Thanks. Poor guy seems forgotten by almost everyone.

I JUST found an actual pic of him, colored and all!
Eillo! He is the chestnut with the yellow bridle, leg wraps and yellow/pink jockey silks, it seems to be in another language but when you click on the pic it says it is him.
He has some nice pics up of a couple BCs.
