Beautiful, sunny, mid 60’s in Hot Springs today.  We stopped in to watch a few races and to check it out.

Working with limited IT help, but the picture of the Winner’s Circle from first race was interesting.  We were standing near the owners before and during the race.  I listened as they claimed that they were not nervous just prior to post.   Their joy was palatable as their filly led start to finish, drawing off in the stretch in a snappy 1:10 for 6 furlongs.  BTW, the purse was $120,000.  The guys couldn’t stop hugging each other for several minutes afterwards.

May we all experience similar moments this year.
