I was there last night and what a race. I did not pay Decisive Moment at first. in fact in my trifecta play yesterday I did not have the 7. However, as fate would have it was having an ok night when I also looked to see who was ridiing the 7. If Willies riding I'm betting. Took the 9 off my Exacta box substituted the 7 and got the Exacta. Good racing and took home some money for tonight.

I know Mark. Kind of creepy with a race named for somebody living. He is definitely alive and well and enjoying retirement. He was the Executive Secretary for the PA Horse Breeder's Association for many years.One good thing is he gets to see the appreciation people have for him and his service while he's still around. And I'm sure he gets to give out a trophy.

He was a great help for many years and a key player in making the PA Breeding program a success.
