I am glad we had a decent chat about Gary Messenger who sounds like a good guy, honest and successful. I haven’t been to MR in at least 10 years. It is no place to go any longer. However the last few times I got talking to a few regulars and I wonder if any of what I was told is true. There used to see a successful trainer April Aldrich but at my last visit I was told she was evicted for some bad deeds. I have never seen her listed as a trainer since then. Was she just caught and gone? Then there was Robert Lounsbury who used to be the leading trainer. Then he had a lot less horses and now he seems to be built back up. Back then when i asked about him I was told he had to change his ways or he too might be asked to find a new home. Now I apologize to these trainers if none of this is true but since MR seems to be a favorite topic let’s here from some people in the know.
