This is Karen, Paul's widow. I am so sorry he/we didn't see these remarks before he left last year. They are an amazing testament to the glory days of racing I was fortunate to enjoy with him at the tracks you mention...Longacres, Bay Meadows, Golden Gate Fields and Del Mar.
Ron Cox was a close friend, as was James Quinn and Andy Beyer. Not to mention the crowd at Del Mar where we wagered together in Gibson Carothers' box - what a wonderful time.
Thank you for your heart felt remarks about this amazing handicapper!
-Karen
