As owner: Meadowlands, Roosevelt, Yonkers, Freehold, Monticello, Buffalo, Batavia, Green Mountain, Garden State, Brandywine and Liberty Bell.

As breeder: Freehold, Monticello, Batavia, Buffalo and Lou Miller's training stable pretend races (Nick Sodano apprenticed on a horse I bred in the 1970's who could both pace and trot around 2:04...which was really neat, but not for an owner!!  However, he made a great horse for Lou Miller at RR, and helped many learn the basics and lived a long, long life, well-cared-for.)

As you can tell by the tracks noted, my breeding experiences were not very successful and I transitioned to just buying "made" horses.

Yes, Billy Silk trained and drove a "comeback" horse for me to prep him for the big time during the 1975-76 time frame.
