Siegel joins board of Thoroughbred Owners of California

Samantha Siegel has been appointed to the board of directors of the Thoroughbred Owners of California following the recent resignation of George Todaro, the organization announced Saturday. Siegel was added to the board through a vote by directors.

Siegel owns Jay Em Ess Stable, which has been in operation for more than 40 years and has included such modern-day stakes winners as Arson Squad, Declan’s Moon, I Ain’t Bluffing, Masochistic, and Rail Trip. Declan’s Moon was the champion 2-year-old male of 2004. Siegel ran the stable with her late parents, Mace and Jan.

Mace Siegel was a founding member of the TOC, which is the state’s official representative for Thoroughbred owners.
