The decline in the value of the American dollar is going to hurt the quality of racing in this country.

Buyers from Japan, Europe, and Canada are far more active at yearling and 2-year-old sales. More than a few very nice athletes I liked from the FT Calder sale were bought up by foreign buyers and aren't going to race here. The decline in the dollar means they are buying these horses at a discount basically.

DEBUNKING that RECESSION BUNK

There is no recession according to PA

The economy is THRIVING.
