The Thanksgiving Thread

[Suffolk Shippers]

I'm thankful for too many things to list, but just hope that everyone cherishes every moment with family and friends today. With busy work lives, things going on, kids, a trip to the track sometimes we lose sight of the really important things like our family and loved ones. Hope everyone finds home to be warm and cozy today.

Good thread. So thankful that i'm able to come home and see both my mom and sister on this holiday, and thankful they are healthy and doing fantastic things in life. Thankful for my wonderful girlfriend, thankful for all my friends and family.

As far as racing goes, very thankful to work with such great people at two different tracks. thankful to get to live in two great cities and thankful to get to see america when i drive between the two (36 hours LOL) just thankful to be a part of the game and to get to work where most people choose to spend their free time.

As many have already said:

Thanks to my children Spencer and Lila and my wife Wendy who allows me to follow my dreams (including owning horses). To the good health of our family ... To the men and women who put their lives on the line... To those who don't jump all over me when i make mistakes and give myself a second chance...

Thanks so much to Chuck and his crew and their work with Sumwon as i can say from firsthand experience that it is so hard to get a young horse to the races and the partners in Sumwon (big thanks to Steve for his creative idea allowing us all to share his vision in becomeing partners) are truly blessed with her year at the races in 2007.

Looking forward to 2008 when all of the yearlings that Chuck just purchased make their way to the races.....

And always, a big thanks to the racing gods who allow me and my family to spend our special time at Saratoga in the summer.....

Happy Thanksgiving to all DerbyTrailers..

I am thankful for most of the same things everyone has already said, and thankful that we do still have some very good people in the world like the members of this site.

Hope everyone has a great day, not much for me besides football. My family decided to have our Thanksgiving on Saturday (should be illegal) because my dad, brother, and bro-in-laws have to work. It wouldn't be the same without everyone together, so I guess it's best we do it Saturday.

just wanted to say happy thanksgiving to all fellow members of this site. may we have much to be thankful for in the coming year most especially our family and friends good health. with that we can work on anything else. even our handicapping. i believe we are so lucky to have something here at derby trail that we enjoy so much as our hobby or job or investment. to me the best thing that we can be thankful for in this great game of horseracing is the fact that we always have hope. be it for cashing the next big ticket, or watching our horse cross the finish line in front. best to all!!
