Best Moment = the most exciting race for me personally this year was The Azeri at Oaklawn...Round Pond and Happy Ticket literally go eyeball to eyeball from gate to wire and Round Pond wins by an eyeball...great race...

Worst Moment = Being mistaken for a woman in the early Derby Trail days....lmaooooooooooo.....

I must say, that was a "DOOZIE"!!! Not to often do you get to experience a race quite like that!

Also, while we're at it, I would like to mention the pasing of Second of June. Not that he was a "super horse" but that putting him down was one of the most unfortunate days I had on the backside of the Spires this Summer. I was "right there" when the ambulance brought him back to the barn and tried to evaluate all avenues to keep him with us.......a day I will never forget. RIP Second of June!!!!!
