East Coast trainer Nesky dies at 64

Posted: Sunday, December 17, 2006

Longtime trainer Kenneth Nesky died on Friday morning due to complications of diabetes. He was 64.

A former steeplechase jockey who was a native of Long Island, New York, Nesky saddled his first winner in 1974 at Liberty Bell racetrack in Philadelphia. Among the winners he trained was six-time New York-bred stakes winner Shopping for Love, victor in the 2001 Spicy Living Sweepstakes Handicap at Rockingham Park, who amassed lifetime earnings $613,669.

"He was a great guy," said trainer Tom Walsh, a Racing Hall of Famer who first met Nesky when both were steeplechase jockeys. "He got along with everyone. If you knew Kenny, you liked him."
