In 1972 a chestnut colt name No Le Hace captured the imagination of San Antonio partly because of his name but mostly because of what he did on the race track. Many San Antonians still remember him. Both the Express News and the San Antonio Light newspapers sent reporters to his notable feats such as the Lousiana Derby and the Arkansas Derby which he won handily. The reporters were also in attendance when he ran second in the Kentucky Derby. The inimitable Dan Cook and Bob Ostrum from our local newspapers covered the derby and then the Preakness where he also ran second. Subsequently he was sold to Japanese interests who shipped him to Japan for stud duty.
