Veteran trainer Elmer Carter dies at age 80

Posted: Sunday, July 16, 2006

Elmer Carter, a World War II veteran who trained Thoroughbreds and Quarter Horses, died on Friday. He was 80.

Carter trained at his farm in Windthorst, Texas, and won a race at Lone Star Park each year since the track opened in 1997. He earned his 35th career win at the Grand Prairie, Texas, track when Sister Genevieve won a maiden special weight race on July 13.

A winner of 173 Thoroughbred races since 1987, Carter won the 1988 Blue Ribbon Classic Lassie Futurity at Blue Ribbon Downs in Salisaw, Oklahoma, with Itchy Feet. He also saddled Out Our Way to victory in the 2005 Oklahoma Classics Juvenile Stakes at Remington Park.

Carter is survived by his wife Dee.

A viewing took place on Sunday at Owens & Brumley Funeral Home in Wichita Falls, Texas. The funeral is scheduled for Monday at 10 a.m. CDT at Antelope Methodist Church in Antelope, Texas.
