Once I get licensed in IL, I will join the ITHA and get more wired in to the issues.
It would be an absolute travesty to shut down Arlington. I hope it doesn't come to that. (I live 10 minutes down the road). But the state of Illinois has a lot of problems and this is just one of many. My partner will outline his philosophy on Illinois racing this weekend when we spend the day at Gulfstream. As an IL-bred, the turf races with added homebred money are definitely on our radar screen. Especially with all owners living in Chicago. But there may be other attractive options/tracks to consider. No decisions have been made about her future schedule and we are focused on this next race. The result will certainly tell us a lot more about Flies. Should be an interesting discussion. Thanks again to all the well-wishes! It's heartening to know that folks will be rooting for her. The race drew some heavy hitters, so it's definitely an underdog story. But her recent performances and affinity for the GP turf track encouraged us to give it a shot.  Go Flies! O
