I was on the apron at Hollywood Park with my soon to be wife when Niatross stamped himself against age pacers as a he greatest horse ever.
What’s yours

What was the best part? The meeting or the divorce?

Hearing Carl Becker announcing
"Horses are coming from everywhere", and my horse is coming the fastest and best.
A Goose Bump Moment!
I am just an old horse trainer still going around in circles. Sometimes Fast. Sometimes Half-Fast.

Watching John Payne win on Slidedance at 50-1 after winning in the same class 2 weeks earlier. Cashing that Superfecta as the only ticket for $12000 when I was only 19 or 20 years old.

Also my first time going to Windsor raceway. First time going out of the country. As a kid, it was really cool.
