It was 67 years ago that Scoop Bam won her first official start @losalracing. Already a national celebrity, the 2yo filly gained fame as a 7-month-old suckling when she was featured in a Dec. 1952 issue of Life magazine for winning the first "milk run" competition at the track. pic.twitter.com/M9TGIjGww8

Something to warm your heart. I know it does mine. Wave and Button out of the hospital today and into the sunshine. There were times we didn’t know if this could possibly happen. Prayers, good thoughts and encouragement can work wonders. Thanks to our vet team, and all of you pic.twitter.com/kPNOX9ZpcM

Bonus Cute Animal of the Week:

Every week we feature another adorable animal in addition to our cute foals. Brad Cox’s barn goat is taking Churchill Downs by storm this Kentucky Derby season but it’s quite possible these two will steal the attention from him by the time the week is done!
