As of late, I have been reading more and more about not paying attention to the customer. I have always been a big supporter of treating the guest fairly, but there are some groups growing in size that use their name as a bully pulpit. Mostly the groups that want to interact with tracks, will […]
The answer, besides a car that is stuck on the tracks, is weight. That is, unless your name is Zenyatta… Today you got to see the best two gals in our sport. There are no real scary three-year-old colts, and these gals have caught national attention. Zenyatta ran in the Vanity at Hollywood Park. Maybe […]
On Saturday, you will get to see two of the best gals the game has to offer. They will not face each other just yet, but it is like a championship fight. It is only a matter of time before it happens. Until that time, you need to dial up WinningPonies.com and hook up with […]
I had a day off from work… Well, I had a bit of money to my name, and I didn’t want to cut the grass on this red-hot day. So, I headed to the O.T.B….. Before I left, I downloaded two tracks that I enjoy playing. They are Belmont and Monmouth. I knew that I was […]
As a horse player, we need very little to keep our smiles flowing. That is of course, if you have the winner of the fifth race. As business gets tough, we need to stop crying. Things will get better, and if they don’t, what difference does it make to go the extra mile? I applaud Churchill […]

Everyone remembers the Preakness. The way we saw the filly dismantle the boys at her will.. The way she dug in and held her ground. Well, you may not get to see her on the biggest stage of racing. I know, it is our loss. Racing’s loss.. History’s loss… Hell, I don’t know of any […]
In a time when racing needs all the help it can get, Kentucky was dealt a blow today that does not allow for the senate to vote on VLT legislation. I have talked to ten friends that work in racing; they have never been so scared. The writing is on the wall, and the leaders […]
In the times of VLT’s and slot machines, many states have tossed their hat into the ring. It seems where there once was none, could possibly be two new locations. The states in question would be Kentucky, and now Ohio. I know, you probably are saying what does this have to do with me? How […]
The turf course may be very soft this weekend at New York. This little tidbit may be just what the doctor ordered for a sweet victory. Last week, we caught a 3-4 shot sleeping at the wheel over the soft going. Let’s go for two-in-a row. Go to Race #9 at Belmont on Saturday. It […]
