He later owned and operated Price Horse Transportation and continued training the occasional racehorse. Harry later spent a number of years training racehorses at Delaware Park and other racetracks in southeastern PA and DE through 2013. In his later years, Harry spent most of his time going to horse races, following the Cheshire Foxhounds around the Unionville countryside along with caring for a number of horses that he and Coco had on a little farm in Warwick, MD.

He had a good run, may he rest in peace.
