Chuck bought my first 5 yearlings on a ridiculously low budget at KEE in '07. Now all 5 have broken their maidens at AP, AQU, PHA, TM and HOO....All five are healthy and moving on. I try not to be too rah-rah, but he deserves credit for finding them and developing them. It has not always been an easy experience , but today was worth everything.

This speaks a lot for Tom's dedication, they are having a Playboy Model Search at Gulfstream tomorrow after the races and he is staying with Klink!

it's amazingly difficult to get a horse to the races let alone win. Hopefully things will keep going.

Kinda surprised that horses up on the pace are able to win on the turf at Tampa... but I haven't been paying too much attention lately

Congrats on the win.

I gotta see the win photo. I heard a certain favorite individual of mine was in there. Surprisingly, I'm not talking about Cherie.

Hi Cherie

Get this. Cherie made nice with this really old guy (mid 70's, Word is that is how she is rolling these days ) in a Green Bay Packers jacket (because the people down here wear winter jackets when it is 55). Anywho, the guy shows up at the barn asking about Albin and who he was doing the day before the race. I am naturally curious about this comedy guy asking about him and then he tells me his name......ALBIN. And his father's name was Albin.

Dude had tears in his eyes yesterday getting in the picture, plus he had a c-note on him.
