trainer retires

Veteran trainer David Vance, one of the fixtures on the Kentucky and Arkansas racing circuits, has announced his retirement following a 58-year career. "It's been a great run but I've decided it's time to retire," Vance said. "Horse racing is in my blood and it's all I've known my entire life.

I'm proud our family will remain involved in training horses with my son, Tommy, and daughter, Trisha, who are third-generation trainers."...
