July 26 - Photo finish from last night’s allowance race at Los Alamitos. Of course I wanted 1st, 2nd, but this photo is for show. What’s interesting is that the 3rd place finisher is by my stallion Tale of the Hills and the fourth place finisher is out of a Tale of the Hills mare. Hooray for “Tank”.

It was a good day for Oak Creek Farm stallions. Goldie’s Hills (Tale of the Hills) took 2nd in his allowance race and Memorys Star (Royal Memory) came in 3rd in her race at Golden Gate Field. Both horses were coming on strong at the end and needed just a little more distance.
