the horses got me involved. been horse crazy as long as i can remember. read every black stallion book who knows how many times...i laid my hands on just about anything horse related, so it was no surprise that i got into racing-i have a very competitive nature, so it just makes sense i guess. betting came much later, i never made it to a track til i was older, no one else in my old family had any interest at all. but now my husband likes to go on occasion, and all three of my kids have gone to the track several times. my youngest had his older sister making bets for him last summer since she was 'of age'. next thing i knew, he was taking care of it himself (he's 17 btw), feeding vouchers and pushing buttons. i told him if the folks at arlington threw him out he would have to sit on the curb and wait because we weren't leaving til the last race!
