I am a bit surprised because you frequent Hollywood Park, but no big deal.

I used to worked out there when she was "Queen bee", and she was pretty much known as a you-know-what around the track.

Thanks for splaining!

I did ask Mr. Google but your answer is better.

For the record I don't frequent HP but hopefully will go for Belmont Day.

I will MISS it.
