Post wrote: "Perhaps no horse more deserves the title of selling plater king of the American turf than Tippity Witchet, the 12-year-old in Broomstick's famous thoroughbred family. For eleven seasons Tippity Witchet has been an active campaigner, and his record for 1927 is as impressive as his achievements in his younger days." His last race took place on February 1, 1929. By the time he retired, he had competed on race tracks in the United States, Canada, Mexico, and Cuba. His record stood at No. 4 in the all-time greatest number of North America wins. In his last year, he was fourteen and still winning. Tippity Witchet was part of the inaugural class inducted into the Fair Grounds Racing Hall of Fame in 1971.
