Nothing is ever a sure thing in horse racing, but one.
The feeling that somewhere in this 2001 Oaklawn season Ray Shumake will win a race when least expected and light up the Tote board. He often does. A resident of De Kalb, Texas where he served several terms as a Bowie County constable, Shumake does much of his training at home. I also break and ready horses on the farm for other trainers. I grew up around horses.
