Would you consider your success to be average or above average for the area where you race?

I could get one at Los Al, however, the purses are low and the training bill are high to match the purses.


Purses are low?

Last I checked, $2,500 claiming throughbreds were running for $10,000 - $15,000 purses at Los Al..

Kid I will not repond to you , because writing to you is useless


Mindnboxx,


I sat at clockers corner and talked to Mel S, Bob B , and several other trainers a year ago early in the morning, they all told me that.

Now what do you want me to believe, the Kid or you

You got to be kidding, anyway, I be at SA within a few weeks and be looking for you and to chat with you face to face.

Telling someone (again) that you aren't replying to him does NOT constitute not replying to him.
