Got one running tonight.

Postby Jenarby » Sun Jan 30, 2005 11:37 am

Hoping the weather holds out and they don't cancel. Haven't had much luck actually getting a chane to run yet this year.
If anyone wants to watch, 4th race at MNR, the horse is "A Good Day To Run."

Thanks!

As long as he comes back to us safely, we will be happy.

Jen looks like you got the favorite tonite. Horse has really florished since coming from the Baird barn but why havent you run him since November?

We entered him in late decemeber and he didn't get in.
Enetered him a few weeks ago and he was having a little belly ache that day so we scratched. This is the first time we've been able to get in since then.
We normally lay up for the winter but in order to keep insurance (health) you have to run three horses in so many months. So we are only keeping a few going, the rest are having a break.

Better safe than sorry, I guess, but frustrating for sure. Better luck next time.
