I was a multiple stakes placed owner with claimers. Ran second in the most prestigious race in Fresno. My win percentage was only 20% because I wanted odds.
My memory of D. Wayne Lukas. I witnessed the beginning of his courtship with Laura Pinelli in the Los Al paddock. A few months later they were married.
This moment will last forever. What a beautiful way to say goodbye. Thank you Ozzy.
Ozzy Osbourne dies at 76. This was his last performance... just days before. Rest in peace.

D. Wayne Lukas in the 80s and 90s had a Bentley, private jet and epic mic skills. He was the Ric Flair of horse racing.
I first step onto the Santa Anita backside in 1991 and I was in awe of Lukas’ barn with its cleanliness, class, and style. And it was cool seeing him drive his Bentley in the stable area.
“I don’t think I’ll retire as long as I can beat these guys.” 89-year-old Hall of Fame trainer D. Wayne Lukas isn’t thinking of retirement any time soon.
Six minutes with D. Wayne Lukas and his six non-negotiables: a masterclass. Every thoroughbred auction house in North America should have his statue out front; he is responsible for billions in trade.
