A Snapshot in Time by Bob Gates

In what will be our final look at opening day wins, pictured is Golden Bid from 20 years ago on May 1, 2005. This was the 12th running of the Don Gray Memorial, which, as you know, is always the first race on opening day. Here we have co-owner and trainer Mike Nault with jockey Larren Delorme. As you can see in this photo, you can never be too sure what Mother Nature has in store for us early in the season! (Gerry Hart photo)
