Transcripts available in the following languages:

(Japanese) I had two race horses at Santa Anita. That was when I was 39—37, 38, 39. They raced at Santa Anita and at Pomona. When I had gone home to Japan, they won two times. I had asked a guy named Noda [?] to watch them for me. While I was in Japan, he sold the horse equipment and the horse—everything. The two of them--he and the trainer split the money and ran off somewhere.
