Alhambra and the Kentucky Derby
Alhambra and the Kentucky Derby By Gary Frueholz, Dilbeck Real Estate A winner of the Kentucky Derby used to call Alhambra home... and I am not speaking about a person. Determine won the 1954 Kentucky Derby. Out of the mold of Seabiscuit, the legendary winner of the 1939 Santa Anita Handicap, Determine was a small horse with a determined nature. In the Kentucky Derby that year, Determine was the smallest of the 17 entries. But unlike Seabiscuit, a horse with an unorthodox gate that people joked about looking more appropriate pulling a milk truck, Determine, with his picturesque proportions and classic stride gave the clear message of being a racehorse. Alhambra notable, Andy Crevolin, not only owned the Chrysler dealership at Main Street and Bushnell Street in our city during the 1930's through 1950's, but also established one of horse racing's most impressive stables of thoroughbreds during the 1940's and 50's. His star horse was Determine. And Andy Crevolin kept his stable here in Alhambra, south of Poplar Boulevard between Main Street and Fremont Avenue at the bottom of the hill, where the Target Department Store now is. Gary Wagner and his brother grew up in Alhambra near the Crevolin stables during the 1940's and 50's. Gary's brother Ron, exercised Crevolin's horses, and this afforded Gary with a good perspective of the race horses. "My brother would exercise the horses," said Gary Wagner. "He (Crevolin) had Determine at the Popular stables." By mid 1950's a higher and better use of the land the Crevolin stables occupied had been found and the stable was closed with many of the horses then being moved out to Santa Anita.
