One year horselover got dragged off to the free seats on Belmont Day when three guys pooled a few bucks to crank a $4,200 Pick 3 on a $24 wager. The three guys were myself, 1/8 Pole, and my buddy Woodman. Horselover wanted to stay with the Board Meeting but the "free seats" and a pull on the sleeve prevailed. She'd have gotten in on that wager if not yanked by the girl with the Contessa seats.
No woman ever pulled on me to get my attention except for maybe 150 or so.

Used to Be Free Seats and Free Chow ??? Your living in the past Yorker. The track "Used" to provide owners, and their guest's, with dinner only when requested. This courtesy was available, on occasion, as a perk if your horse ran in a stakes race. As far as I know Gary never, wined or dined his clients. Not to say he didn't entertain personal friends or celebrate after a big win on occasion.

I didn't read where she said that, but if she did, I'm sure it must be true. Is it that inplauseable that he bought her lunch?
While Gary trained for me, I saw he and Stef talking many times.

who cares who Cheesesteak fed...more important is the fact he has ZERO credibility or experience in running an OTB..kinda slapstick that he would even mention such a ridiculous thing...Stick to training and Make a Wish..he knows that and he is better than most.
