Yes, I'll still be calling at Mountaineer (and Friday nights at Buffalo). Feodor would have to be my favorite, then Huntress Helena. So, a specialist two-miler and a specialist two-furlonger.

loved the call of Feodor..

"I don't know what turn number this is - I count count that high"

By golly, Feodor must be 20 lengths in front...he might win by a furlong.

Nice pairing.

If you ever make it to the Meadowlands dinner is on me. Have a great day and I'll be watching for Mountaineer.

I'm certainly overdue for a trip there. My only previous visit was in 1977 for Rambling Willie's Hackensack Pace.

Was that when you and Barry Sanders were in law school ? Or was that Ken Berry ?

Side note. Do you guysknow that Thick Vic Stauffer rooted for Blame because it meant more money to him in the pick 4?

Wow!... Now that comes out of the way, way back machine!

Any day is good but the meadowlands pace or Hambo are easily the most exciting days there. Regardless my offer stands. just give me a heads up.
