He died Monday night. One of only 2 jockeys (the other was Eddie Arcaro) to win the Kentucky Derby 5 times. Probably his greatest mount was the great Northern Dancer, who won it in 1964.

RIP

  1. RIP (even though i do not know who the h**l you ... were) =( why am i sad? idk who the h**l this guy was......... =S


  2. Godspeed, Bill, Godspeed. You were driven to win and you won't be forgotten.

    You got the mount on my beloved Northern Dancer when "The Shoe" Bill Shoemaker passed... HUGE MISTAKE! You gave an awesome ride that day, and even though I was just a kid, it raised goosebumps on my arms and the hair on the back my neck too. One of the thrillingest rides I have ever seen. YOU WILL BE MISSED.

  3. Bill, you were a true professional.  Rest in Peace . I hope there is a magnificent race track in heaven and you are there right now.

  4. I loved Bill Hartack. He had the grits and determination to ride five Kentucky Derby winners. He pinpointed the exact time to make his move, which most were winning ones. He was one of the best jockeys the U.S. has ever seen.

  5. God Bless you Bill! You rode my first winning pick for the Kentucky Derby in 1962,"Decidedly".
