Inmate and Quick Call at the TRF Second Chances Farm at Wallkill
The late Quick Call was more than a gritty horse with a knack for coming up big at Saratoga Race Course.
After winning nine of his 17 starts from 1986 to 1991 at the Spa, Quick Call transitioned in his post-racing career to another starring role in the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation s (TRF) pioneering “Second Chances” vocational training program, working with inmates at Wallkill Correctional Facility in upstate New York.
That blend of excellence earned Quick Call rock star status at both the Spa and at Wallkill – and now, a rare honor on the Saratoga backstretch. This week, the New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA) will bury the ashes of the two-time Grade 2 Forego champion at Clare Court, the bucolic, half-mile jogging track.

When It Started:
Previously, the school record was held by Tim Olson in 200 where he logged 29 consecutive games with a hit. Olson went on to the MLB to play for the Arizona Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies. Now, 21 years later a new Gator kept it going. Olson reached out to Young following the game to send his congratulations.
As it stands now, Young joins the company of six other ballplayers across the SEC who have achieved this feat as well. His streak is also the fourth-longest multi-season hitting streak in SEC history,. He sits behind Vanderbilt’s Ryan Flaherty (36 games in 2006-07) and Warner Jones (32 games in 2003-04), and Mississippi State’s Rex Buckner (31 games in 1992-93). Olson reached out to Young following the game to send his congratulations.
