Happy Thursday & National Without a Scalpel Day! 👨🏻⚕️ (see below)
We are happy to be back to racing in sunny So Cal as last Friday's card has been rescheduled for today! We have 10 total races but no stakes so make sure you have a snack before you put in those tickets. The fires are still raging but the ponies are not in danger so we ride! The weather in So Cal is to be expected for this time of year with highs in the mid 60s and sunny skies. The track is fast and turf is firm so we have a great day of racing ahead!!!

"Each year, National Without a Scalpel Day, January 16th, recognizes the opportunities to treat disease without a scalpel. On this day in 1964, pioneering physician Charles Dotter performed the first angioplasty. The ground-breaking procedure to open a blocked blood vessel occurred in Portland, Oregon. Not only did the angioplasty allow the patient to avoid leg amputation surgery, but she left the hospital days later with only a Band-Aid."
