First of all Derby Cat, thanks for all you do in putting together the contests we enjoy so much. After years of being a fan, I too decided it was time to move to the next level. I also wanted to impress my wife with a percentage in a horse as a Christmas Present. It took me nearly two years to get the deal that worked for us. I finally ended up in a claiming partnership with no additional fees. Granted you don't make much, but it was affordable and offered us the opportunity to participate as owners, not just betting fans. It took nearly six months to get a trainer to play along and claim a horse. We now are on our second horse. He just moved up to an Allowance level and won there too. We have been exceptionally lucky. I haven't had this much enjoyment in the sport since I first broke open a Racing Form. Just today, we had to drive nearly 250 miles to a legal place to wager on horse racing. Our horse was in the second at Churchill. We had everyone in the simulcasting facility on their feet rooting for our horse. He came in for a DEAD HEAT win!. D. C. do it!........... You will love it.
PS, that's him in the AVATAR
