Barry Abrams has been appointed to the board of directors of the Thoroughbred Owners of California.

"We are pleased to welcome Barry Abrams, a long-time trainer and enthusiastic owner, to the board," said TOC Chairman Alan Landsburg. "He will be a valuable addition because of his passion for the rules and regulations under which racing operates."
