Holy Angels Jockey Game

It was a big night for Doug Ferris!  In honor of his 40th anniversary of racetrack attendance, we took some pictures of Dad with some Hall of Fame Jockeys.

Dad brought a race program from 1991 that had pictures of the jockeys that were riding at Santa Anita at the time.  All the jockeys really enjoyed seeing those pictures of much-younger selves and friends!
All the jockeys were so nice and gracious in signing programs and taking pictures.
Here is Dad with these jockeys:
