A friend of ours, the people who got Waited So Long, (Wade) have the
contract to promote Santa Anita. They did a multi million dollar upgrade.
He showed me a video of the triple crown winner at the track. Evidently
this is an unusual race horse, he loves people. The crowd was standing back
to look at him, and his owner told them to crowd in. The horse loved it, and
was nuzzling everyone. I guess he is going to live now at Santa Anita
when he is done doing his thing in Kentucky.
I am going to go meet him as soon as I can.
If I knew how to spell American Pharaoh I would have used his name.
I may skip the Futurity, and go see Ed. Hell, there will be another
Futurity next year anyway.

Many many years ago and way before I had show dogs, I fell in love with a
black Champion male Sch1 , Darby Dan's Jedi Knight ( I think that was the
dogs name, bred by Dan Smith).. Never saw the dog in person, the New Star
Wars movie reminded me of that dog... Amazing how my mind works... On a side
note I just got my calendar of the KCBS California BBQ contest schedule and
saw that the Santa Anita Winner's Circle BBQ Championship, the largest and
best contest in CA, is April 1-2. My team, the Salt and Pepper Pork
Pullers had planned to compete in this contest for the first time! The unique
thing about this event is that the BBQ teams are cooking on the Horse Race
track on the infield while the horses are running real races on the outside
dirt track! We've heard from other teams what a great and exciting event this
is...... but several months ago I informed Frank Martello's wife that my
team would provide a free lunch for everyone attending the Mid-pacific
Futurity.... And yes you guessed it! It's the same weekend!... So if you want
some Great BBQ on April 2 you can go to Santa Anita Race track, or you can go
to the Mid Pacific Futurity! Pig wings will be one of my menu items.
Merry Christmas! FB
