Sponsored by: Ricky Gonzalez rides Leggs Galore to a wire-to-wire victory in the Fran s Valentine Stakes for California-breds In her first two turn assignment, William Sims homebred Leggs Galore went to the lead and never looked back, taking Sunday s $100,000 Fran s Valentine Stakes at Santa Anita in Arcadia, Calif., by three quarters of a length over heavily favored Warren s Showtime. Trained by Phil D Amato and ridden by Ricky Gonzalez, Leggs Galore got one mile on turf in 1:34.85. With a pair of scratches earlier in the day, the Fran s Valentine was reduced to a field of four older California-bred fillies and mares. To the surprise of no one, Leggs Galore bounced out of the gate from her rail post and turned the race into a virtual parade to the far turn, with Kristi s Tiger a length and a half off the lead three furlongs out and Warren s Showtime another half length back. ....

News Nancy Bates Premium Content Subscriber only They are calling it a Christmas miracle at the Whistlestop museum. The original name plate of the legendary Mary Ann locomotive has mysteriously reappeared after 127 years. The little locomotive, the first built in Queensland, disappeared without a trace in 1893 after a Mary River flood and a disastrous fire at the Dundathu sawmill where she was stored. Maryborough engineer Peter Olds, long intrigued by the quaint little loco with the upright boiler, was the driving force behind the building of a replica, launched in 1999 after being rebuilt from three historic photographs. The Mary Ann has since been an iconic attraction in Maryborough, pulling carriage loads of visitors and residents through Queen s Park on her regular outings before returning to her home at the Whistlestop museum. ....
