Guess it wouldnt have mattered if RA hadnt run in the Preakness and MTB had won... there still would be NO TC winner this year....
BZ, next year I am picking your brain before the races....LOL....

My Mom follows racing very close and watches daily. She can tell me all about the jockey's and which horses they are best suited for. She is a lover of anything horses.

I'm thinking I had good enough sense not to take that path in my riding career. I've just enjoy retraining them after they've been on the track. Hey you probably know more in your little pinky about who to pick in races then I ever would.
She's told me a few times, but I keep forgetting. When we went to the USHJA Trainer symposium last October she had a friend of Carol Russell's house sit, but I think she was going to be busy that week.
Umm, I was a grunt. It was a summer job I had to do for school and some little bald fat man hired me. It was quite an experience.Wow, that must have been some on the job training. Which trainer did you get to work for?
Where I grew up in Howard County there are some pretty big TB stables. Many of my horse friends went to work for them breaking the young ones before going to the track. Some of them almost got killed doing it.
I definately had the bad. I did get to do some cool stuff and got to play with the horses once in a while. Man that was 17 years ago!!! How time flies!!!
Good grief, let me think. All I remember is he was bald and very round and short. I only saw him once or twice really. Worked mostly with the boys that come and go. I worked with a Miguel and a Jimmy. Thats all I got and that was digging deep in the brain cells. I dont have alzhiemers yet.....I think. I was just a kid trying to graduate and didnt want to work at some fast food joint that year.You dont remeber his name? I'm curious...I've been around the MD tracks (and others) since 1982... I dont even add up the years anymore...
Not such a memorable time huh?
Oh.... sorry. Do you remember a bald little man with an attitude??? Very gruff, scratchy voice, always had on a suit, sweating all the time! It was an ok time. I loved playing with the horses the most but it was hard and I was young and gullable so they had fun with me. I guess I had fun too sometimes.Well that narrowed it down some....you just described half of the trainers and employees....LOL.
