Not really sure why Middleton left in the first place to become a trainer, not much money there with a small stable of cheaper horses.

He was always a trainer then had a serious injury.

[Ken Middleton](https://www.google.com/search?q=ken+middleton&kgmid=/g/11vsj4y858) left regular race announcing due to ongoing health setbacks following a severe horse training accident. [1]
In June 2023, Middleton—who trained his own stable alongside his duties as the long-time track announcer for Woodbine Mohawk Park—sustained serious injuries, including multiple fractured vertebrae, during a training mishap. The accident was severe enough that surgeons noted he was lucky to have survived without being paralyzed. [2]
Following an arduous recovery, he made a highly anticipated return to the announcer's booth in January 2024. However, his return was brief; he suffered subsequent health setbacks related to his recovery, which ultimately forced him to step away from the microphone again as other announcers filled his rotation. [1, 2, 3]

Speak for yourself. G is a gentleman and is not only knowledgeable but is completely aware of the Petrelli and Mark Ford Situation, unlike some obsessed posters on here who ask him to resign daily. His posts make sense unlike some who look like they never graduated 3rd grade. It’s hypocritical for you to say nobody would miss his lies if you are OK with Andrew, sweet and Petrelli blowing up every thread with completing nonsense.

The Petrelli and Mark Ford Situation is it never-ending saga of Mike's jealousy. Mark only tried to help him giving him a job on the farm,, a place to stay only to be backstabbed.

When Mark found out he was dismissed and thrown off the farm then his attack on Mark started.  It seems to be a way of life for him as I never heard of this guy until he started attacking my posts that's what started it for me. He's done that with multiple people on this website.

scrape the paint,,, I feel the same way about you! You are knowledgeable and know harness racing like the back of your hand!  I enjoy reading all your posts and look forward to it.

Who you like in the Monday Night Football game?

No reason to say you 'footblled' out.

Just say, home/away ,,, or over/under.

if the owner has a couple of horses in I charge one fixed rate. If there are say three horses each individual owners get charged separately.

That’s not exactly what I asked.  I’ll use an example:
If you charge $200 to ship from wherever you are to Batavia let’s say, for 1 horse in to race that day, do you charge $600 total to race 3 that same day at Batavia ($200 per horse), or a lower charge per horse (irregardless of who owns them since you bill each horse separately each month)?
