A Day At The Races


Bruce Allen and I were invited to Hastings Park last Sunday to decorate the winning horses at the annual B.C. Day Derby. It was a wonderful day and the track greeted an enormous crowd. At one point former jockey Tommy Wolski asked us to go to the paddock and have our photos taken for posterity. Left to right: yours truly, Wally Oppal, Bruce, Tony Tanti, and Tommy in front.  Our wives joined us for an outstanding day at the races.

Here’s another view, from celebrated Sun photographer (now retired) Ralph Bower:
