Life Without Linda

By Paulick Report ARCADIA, Calif. (Oct. 17, 2012) -- Some racing people outside of Southern California may never have heard of Linda Laird, who died Monday after a brief illness. But Linda and her husband, Richard, who bought their first racehorse in Northern California in 1966, exemplify the small stables on which this game depends.

They were not the leading buyers at select yearling sales and never won a Triple Crown race, but no one enjoyed a day at the races – and especially watching one of their own horses run – more than Dick and Linda Laird. http://www.paulickreport.com/news/ray-s-paddock/life-without-linda/
