A thoroughly fun day..
Will need more time to put a recap together, but just a quick post to say what an enjoyable day I thought Wednesday was and to thank everyone that came out.. We had about as picture perfect a day as you could desire in Chicago, and a turnout of around 30 partners, Trailers, their friends and family made it the kind of afternoon we all had in mind when undertaking the Stable idea.
I don't really need to address the actual race and result here, except to say that having Chuck Simon involved in this concept was the greatest stroke of fortune for which we all could have hoped. Beyond the selection and training of a wonderfully game horse in SWLY, his availability and willingness to share his time and attention with everyone participating in DT/Dee Tee actively or passively is beyond the norm by a wide margin.
Simply put, the day fell just 4 yards short of perfection... More when I have time to write, but thanks to those in attendance at Arlington, everyone on DT that enjoy the experience from afar, and for all the kind words about what we're trying to accomplish with our racing endeavours...
