Yeah, they did. Myself, I never have understood the attraction of large show wagers.

You can't get 5% interest from your bank for two minutes work; then again the bank doesn't make you run around the block to get it.

I don't get it either Bruce...to each his own I guess.

Sears taught the boys how to drive last night. Won 6 of the first 10 races on the card.

You think he is better on 1 mile tracks vs 1/2 mile?

What do you think?

I think he is and I believe it has to do with his sesnse of timing. Im glad The Big M has started up. Only harness track I like more is Balmoral.

There was a few years where I rarely missed a night they were running. Got to learn alot of patterns, driver tendencies, etc..

I sucked bad at the T-Breds then (I still do for the most part), but I would manage to get back the money I lost once the Big B started running.
