(Also off the board on Clef 'Dargent for Whiteley earlier) Cordero lost Tiller and Instrument Landing as well. If everyone remembers, that was when the Tony Ciulla race fixing accusations were in full throat and Angel was booed any time he didn't hit the board. DW and Angel shipped West a lot that year to capture major stakes in California with both Waya and Tiller.
No matter, Whitely used Angel later that September on Waya in an allowance race. She finished third to.....John Henry.

She also beat Tiller in the Man o' War in 1978, under Angel, when Penna still trained her before Wildenstein sold her to Brant.
