Not the way to start the New Year. R.I.P. Billy Turner. Happy New Year everyone

Yeah. Sad but you have a nice point.

Yeah. Madden did not die in the past 48 hours though.

These names make me cry. Medina will likely be missed most, but God, this is tough to see these names that will no longer be with us in 2022

Abdullah, Maktoum, Hughes, Mena I will miss most

Has six bone chips in his knee. Surgery and stall rest for 5 months

With new trainer Anthony Farrior and owner John Fanelli, A Great Affair won at Charles Town 12/10 R1 PP8 by 14 lengths! To make it even better, my friend reclaimed the horse! What a way to round out the year! Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas everyone!

My friend’s horse got claimed after being last with a discovered breathing issue. I am said to hear this, but I hope he does well for his new connections. I always believed in you buddy!

With A Great Affair gone, my friend purchased a new horse, a Palace x Dicey D J. Looks to me like this fully could have good things to come as a sprinter. Breeding can be strange, so for all I know, this could be the next best mile and a half turf star!

Wow! I did not think I would have been top three! This is definitely my favorite Breeder’s Cup, not just the talent, but also me rooting (really loud) for my picks! I will be back in this hopefully next year. As a horse racing for over half of my life, being third means the world to me. I told myself that if I got a top placing, I would dedicate it to Miguel Mena. You died too soon.
