Clones Meet Again Today

The mule clones, Idaho Gem and Idaho Star are entered in the third second race at Stockton today. One mystery has been solved, as Roger Downey, owner/lessee of Idaho Star, has named Don McDaniel as trainer of his charge. During the Winnemucca meet the cloned mule ran in Mr. Downey's name as the trainer of record. Mr. Downey does not have a California trainer's license, although it is widely known that he directs most of Idaho Star's day to day activities.
