We have had a decent first six months winning 18 races and over $675,000 in purse money. Our starting goal for the year was 50 wins and $1.5 million in purses. They are still within reach, but we need to get things moving along. We did have a terrible Churchill meet ending with zero wins and taking home the duck. Had a few seconds and thirds, and a good claim that was taken back next time out on the raise, so some good things did happen during that meet.

Since the Churchill meet closed we have won 4 races including one with a horse we claimed at Churchill winning the first time we ran him back. So that was encouraging. The babies are getting closer to being ready to run, which is always a highlight. We usually have pieces and parts of Two year olds you can buy in to before they run, so if your looking give me a call. Only one more week before Indiana Downs closes and then there is a three week break until Hoosier Parks opens up in Anderson.

Breeding season is over and we have begun weaning the early foaling mares.

Del Mar and Saratoga open July 18th and 20th respectively, so if you are in the neighborhood you should stop in and partake of the beautiful race courses. If you are not in the area, you should make a point of supporting your local mutual handle. Racing needs all fans to participate.

In the words of Harvey Pack, “May the horse be with you”.
