My ninth season @fairgroundsnola is complete. We accomplished so much this meet and I couldn't be prouder of our team. The work is rewarding. The friendships and family atmosphere are unmatched. So many memorable moments both on and off the track. Season stats: 444-128-8-55, $1.61 Win ROI, 28.8% Top Pick Win & $60.4% ITM. looms. Going to hit the reset button & gear up for @KentuckyDerby 152.

Two nights ago, I was at a bar just nursing a drink when I saw this man in his 60s. Total presence full head of white hair, very poised.
We happened to be drinking the same brand, so I moved over, exchanged some pleasantries, and just asked him straight up:

The end of the racing season @fairgroundsnola is always bitter sweet. Led by @JohnGDooley and @TrustYourLuck, I'm blessed to work with an amazing team. We couldn't do it without our TV guys Lonnie, Quincy, Ian & Sean. At Fair Grounds, we're family. Until next season!
