Sam smith from Batavia/ Buffalo. Oh wait, you said on just hay, oats, and water. He wins trainer of the meet every time but always gets the positives ! Lol. He will never win on just hay, oats, & water.

Howard and Doug Ackerman were good friends for years.  I first met Doug in California (Del Mar) where he trained down his young well bred stock.  I remember when Doug hooked up two trotters Noble Hustle and Noble Traveler in a tandem bike for a time trial at Del Mar.  I can still picture Doug coming down the lane out of the fog with fists full of lines ... I will never forget that.  Doug was blessed with the best possible owner under the sun.  The man had great sense of humor and didn't have pretentious prima donna bone in his body.  A young upstart trainer friend of mine at the time was struggling with a filly trotter and asked Doug for help - he provided some, and it helped.
