yes, but all they do is get the maximum purse money and let the place fall down! 
FYI, the t-breds rent a handful of stalls at the raceway for that meet and they must make a good buck on that too!

Maybe some body can do something to pull the horseman together.

Problem with that is very few "horseman associations" are for the horseman. They want the dues and when you have a issue it's like "Go away! Don't bother us"! Most of the saw called Board is under the racetracks management anyway.

  • dougie: I know very little about him. But since I admire his goals, I admire the man. There'a alot of hate out there. But it's the horses that all should focus on. My friend Trigger tells me i'm naive about things. I am not. But I do believe that what he does overrides the petty nasty personal attacks we see so frequently.

  • dougie: I'm glad. Some folks on here hate the messenger so they hate the message too! Mike P. has never insulted me in any way. I see a lot I=of support from many "non horse people" on his page.
