Great pics!!! MY favorite was Doon. Not because I'm from Michigan. I like darker/black horses and I'm not really a fan of a blaze on a horses face either. That being said I can't buy into Doon. The Michigan racing scene has fallen apart. I'm afraid she could have ten starts, ten wins and might not bank 50k. 

  I worked in the mutuel department for years before retiring. I ran the money room at Northville for seven years or so. Everyday I balance the room, make a deposit. Part of that deposit went to the Standardbred fund. That fund hasn't received monies from wagering for over a year now. It's strictly supplied by the state. The state isn't racetrack friendly it's owned by the casinos. I fear the purses will be tiny. We are just another state that no longer has a racetrack. Sad. Thanks for the great pics.

Once again Amber very nice pics.

Anthony mentioned videoing on Wednesday, if that happens my plan is to be there. If anyone would like pictures of particular horses post a list and I'll do my best to get them for you.

Mark if it's not a problem I'd like a pic or two of Jolene Hall. She is still my sleeper to come forward. I have 16 shares total of various babies she has 25% of my roster. Also the first 3yo Filly trotter BSS is May 19th. As long as the weather is decent I plan on seeing Freedom Hill assert her dominance. Hope to meet others if you attend.

MY traveling partner found something saying the first BSS race is actually Tuesday the 20th at Northfield. The Ohio Guide says the Monday the 19th. Does anyone know the actual date?

 

Lonnie recently in my site visits I find I have to sign in every time. My last post was maybe an hour ago. I hit refresh, it recognized me. I still had to sign in to post. FYI we are nearing the limit of my tech knowledge 🙂

Northfield doesn't race on Mondays, so I assume the correct date is Tuesday the 20th.

As for the site visits and posting issue, I thought I had taken steps to mitigate it, but apparently not.  I will try something else.

Tech issues.  Last year at the Jug, Lonnie encouraged me to post the picture of me and our great, new friend from Michigan wearing our respective teams’ famous gear.  He saw the confusion in my eyes, assumed control of my phone, and posted the pic with what seemed like a few taps of the fingers.  Wizardry.

Back in Lexington area.  House in Washington under contract pending buyer’s loan process.🤞that we get to meet up at tracks for years to come.
