A huge post. Thanks and best wishes to all Dads. I know that you all have great memories of going to the track or taking your children to the track. For me, I was ten, my Dad took me to Santa Anita. I was twenty five and took my two daughters(at the time) to the opening at the Woodlands where they met Mr. Shoemaker. My youngest got to go later after she was born. Teaching them to read a Racing Form was some of the best fun I ever had. I know a lot of you also share that experience. Now they have families of their own. New railbirds. God bless to all.

I have to add this, my oldest daugher at 19 when we were at Remington, said "I can't believe how stressfull this is". Well, she won and that pretty much set up the rest of her life as far as racing was concern.
