I grew up with harness race horses for as long as I can remember.   My grandfather raced at Hinsdale when I was about 10yrs. old.   I was what they called a hot walker and stall mucker in those days.   When I turned 14 they let me jog my first horse by myself. ( Tar's Choice )   When I turned about 17, I started chasing 2 legged fillies.   They were a little harder to get to go the whole mile.  ( The 2 legged fillies that is. )   Anyway most of my life has been around harness horses or some kind  of horses.  I've met a lot of nice and knowledgeable people and had some pretty nice horses and some wonderful girls and through it all its been a great TRIP !!!
