I think my two favorite shows from last year were the two "specials" you did on "Mutuel Interest" and the show on breeding. May I suggest a show similar to the New Owner Seminars that TOBA puts on. I think it would be interesting to get a different perspective, on the various partnerships that are available and perhaps compare that to direct ownership.
Just my opinion of course.
Keep up the good work we all truly appreciate the hard work you do in getting "our" sport out there.

HH,
Thanks very much.. Also great suggestions. Can be hard to pin down guests for one hour, but certain people would do it. Since we usually have a specific topic to discus in the 30 min. segments (actually just 24 minutes), it's hard to make room for callers unless specifying the segment for that. Maybe 45 min. segments with half devoted to calls?? Thatr could work too...
I am immensely proud of the "Mutuel Interests" and Breeding Specials, and am pleased to see you agree that they were important and memorable. We're absolutely going to do several more theme specials this winter including an ownership show and one featuring the personalities behind the great aborted 1990's racing publications (Fig's Form, The Racing Times and Metro Turf) that were the foundation for changes in the Form as we now know it.
Thanks very much for the feedback..
