Pat Floyd graciously reminded me that Hometown Boy was on the cover of the Greyhound Review. This is the cover from the May 2007 Review. Looking back and really analyzing this dog's career makes one realize just how awesome he was on one of our country's toughest and most demanding ovals, Derby Lane. I was busy Googling him today and there are so many newspaper articles on him that I was not even aware of. I cannot wait to get Hometown Boy here and get a start on his second career. I know that the Floyd's and I are hoping he will be as successful in the breeding barn as he was on the track.

Danica Driver ran a nice 3rd for me at Palm Beach this afternoon. She didn't break well and honestly I thought she was in the back....but she obviously drove up from 7th to make a paycheck. She has no idea how fast she is.

Park Top is due for the D'Arcy's this weekend. We are all hoping for a very safe and easy whelp for our Miss Pork Chop. She is a cherished girl around here and one of the kennel clowns. Her first litter by Rumble is being put 'round the gig tomorrow for the first time! They look outstanding in the field we will see what they do tomorrow!
