Last contact i had with it, it was Golden Corral, circa 2012. I don't wish to say why and no i never trained from there.

You are correct about Golden Shoes being the name. I had a double brain fart. Had a racing buddy that used to call it Golden Corral after the OK Corral because of all the "desperadoes" that were stabled there. the name stuck in my head. My apologies, Wizard.

All i know is there are two old cow farms that years ago were transformed into training centers. On e in Pine Bush the other in Montgomery. Each was owned by a harness family when they had cattle. The Crevani's and the Stivale's. one is Golden horseshoe. Not sure about the other.
