I have it on my bucket list of tracks to go and see. Monmouth Park has always been attractive, as the little track at the ocean.. I couldn’t wait, and the past few years it seemed like the little track was going to go the way of the dinosaur. Until now….. The 65th season will kick off […]

New York racing got a break today and Governor David Paterson has stepped up and gave the NYRA $17 million to get the sport through Saratoga. To make the cake sweeter, he said that they are working on a long term plan after that. So, it lives…. And we need to celebrate by capping the […]

We can’t help it sometimes when we get jealous, or just be a little envious when someone gets a break. I guess we can all be guilty of doing this at sometime or another, and we overcome these feelings. But, when you are on the major stage and people are questioning your abilities, only the real […]

When we read about any entertainment based business, I always see that the public feels we are not advertising in a way that is enticing. This year, I think they can lose that talk. I kept hearing the same tag-line over and over this past Saturday: “Get Your Preak On.” This simple line drew more attention […]

Preakness 135 is in the books. Lookin at Lucky finally got a break, and we saw some new faces who will make a splash down the road. We really needed Super Saver to win for the industry.  But, you can’t always get what you want….Or sometimes, what we really need. I loved the way that “Lucky” […]

The field is set, and only one can continue the dream of being the next Triple Crown hopeful. It has been a long time from that sales ring to the two-year-olds in training, and the long trek up Triple Crown hill. We could talk at great length about what could happen, but that is why they […]

My pal loves to play on the big days. No matter if it is at Sunland Park or Santa Anita. He has his bets down… He just loves the big days. I have another pal. You have heard him on our Internet Show and he goes by “Pistol Pete,” but his real name is Pete […]
