Well, the BC race wasn't exactly his first time going "the wrong way" as he broke his maiden going the wrong way, but I do agree that Eltish probably doesn't get as much credit as he deserves.

Hope you have some luck finding old pictures.

I assume you want exact dates of when Famous Woman won so that you might use them to obtain win pictures???


April 10, 2003 at Santa Anita

May 15, 2003 at Hollywood Park

June 13, 2003 at Hollywood Park

March 26, 2004 at Santa Anita

February 23, 2005 at Charles Town

March 16, 2005 at Charles Town, WV



Now why am I not surprised at Michael Gill sending horses to a kill pen?

Talk about a guy who was always no good for racing...

His all time best was paying someone to saw the leg off of one of his dead horses shortly after it broke down in a race.

Thankfully he announced years ago that he was leaving racing, and lets hope that he finally has!


PS - her last race was actually June 27, 2005 at Suffolk Downs.

Hi, thanks again for the information. The 165 races was just a slip, I did mean 16. I bought this gelding as a riding horse and just wanted to know a little bit about his background, thanks again.

I am looking for winning photo's from Walloping Wolla (1987 Model) Spot the Money (89 model) & Stacys Girl (85 Model). We lost all of our winning photos in a house fire and havent been able to find a way to get them back since. Any help would be appreciated!

Looking for CompelledToGambol

Postby Vegas » Fri Mar 16, 2007 4:30 pm

We are hopeing to get a track record and photo of a dark bay TB gelding named CompelledToGambol out of Compeeling Sound and Sweet and Fleet. He was foaled in April of 1997, breeder Marcia Wolfe.
All I know about his race record was he raced at Penn National in 2001 and one race recorded on paper of 7-24-02. His jockey in 2001 was C. Nieto. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Jarad, let me assume that the important photos would be those with the common ownership thread between the three horses.

Walloping Walla

Feb. 1, 1990 at Evangeline Downs

Feb. 24, 1990 at Evangeline Downs

Stacys Girl

I have an odd feeling that this won't help either of you. The first person would have already exhausted the avenues to getting old photos from that track in the south. The second person already knows the data he/she needs in order to get an old picture.


Good luck.

Gosh, Spot the Money ran (and won) pretty frequently during that period in 1995.

Would I contact Penn National about the photos or would I first have to find out who the photographer was then and contact them ?
Thank you so much.

Spot the Money (Alton Menard)
Walloping Wolla (Alton Menard)
Stacys Girl ( Wayne Mason)

These would be the owners and the trainer being Terran Menard for all. Thanks for the information, its not good to hear that pictures are not easy to come by from EVD.

Where did you hear that?

Certainly not here.

But it makes sense that you would have already hunted high and low for replacement pictures from that track long before posting here.

At any rate, at least you have the dates all in one spot, even though it would make sense that someone in your circles had records of that data anyway, fire or no fire.

Another trick is to try the jockeys and trainers from those wins. Someone on one of these boards even got help from Jerry Bailey that way a year or two ago.

Anyone happen to know the EvD racetrack photographer from around 1989 to 1995 or the Delta Downs Photographer from 1991? I will try to contact the tracks for this info but was hoping someone already new.
