I have been thinking about this since I saw this thread few days ago, I was amazed at myself because I couldn't remember how I got in to racing...sumitas just jogged my memory...
My very first exposure to racing was reading all of the walter farley books when I was in grade school...no one in my family had or has any interest in horse or racing...but I was bitten early.
My first trip to the track came @ age 11 (saratoga). First time sitting on a TB @ 13 (my best friend had one off the track named Buster Brown).
And it all went down hill from there, my mother is still trying to figure out where she went wrong. I told her it was that we had to drive past a horse farm on the way to my piano lessons when i was 5...
