Expansion, L Harmon and Bgtolex25
Quote from Grit on December 20, 2024, 12:30 PMHow is that for a teasing a new topic! I agree with Bgtolex25 comments about Lauren Harmon. I know she's a big part of the Northfield operation, especially with the younger horses. Selfishly, I'd like to see her get her trainers license and take on a bigger role at Northfield. Move one of the Jason's to central, southern Ohio, Build a permanent base where there wouldn't be as much shipping but still have the option when needed. The issue with horses not getting in is an endless cycle. Turnover is one solution, is a new or bigger base somewhere else another option?

Quote from Lonnie on December 20, 2024, 1:18 PMI like the idea of expanding the base. We need more opportunities for all of our horses.

Quote from Bgtolex25 on December 20, 2024, 6:33 PMAnd selfishly, I would love a barn in southern Ohio. Lexington to Dayton or Miami Valley is much better drive vs. Northfield in the winter. And there are tons of grassroots type harness folks in southern Ohio who might be enticed to come on as clients if they had a regional stable to visit on a regular basis. Great idea, but putting a reference to me in the title made me spit out my coffee!

Quote from Bgtolex25 on December 21, 2024, 10:15 AMQuote from SC Upstate on December 21, 2024, 7:35 AMYou're her biggest fan or agent? Maybe both??? lol
Never met her, but I am told by those who have that she has the work ethic and charisma to be a leader. A female version of AMac in those important qualities if you will. So when you look for expansion, you really need to replicate and/or improve upon the OG. Frankly, I don’t want to be a part of a stable that is led by an old school curmudgeon type. I get enough of that looking in the mirror every morning. AMac’s vision is to create entertainment value, so I am interested in what others would like to see or have already seen along those lines with TheStable.

What does "OG" stand for? Old Guard?

Well, in this case it is slang for “original”. Hopefully I didn’t use it improperly, but the neighborhood kids say it all the time. I was just trying to be cool like them.

Clearly, I'm not as cool as you!
