I`m grateful that yesterday was Mr.Billy Blue`s last race,he is getting hot-Larry Smith wasn't there(new driver,yet again).He left the gate great,would`v gotten a 3 hole trip,ducked him and he ran.The horse was a little out classed for sure.We couldve went in the bronze with Randy.Difference in classes would've been>had he run in the bronze he wouldn't have had to work so hard to catch up.He was last.However on a positive note,he only missed 2 checks,made $7,885 in 10 starts 3-0-2..a fourth and 2 fifths.Respectable at any rate..Best part is,he finished the season sound and we know what we need to stay on top of next year.Right now, if he were to go to a parimutuel track-I would guess he`d trot in 2:05,if he stayed flat.He is of humble breeding and was never meant to be a world champion.Next year>>we are hoping for a few 2:00 miles.Will he do it??Time will tell.Thanks for letting me tell my story.
