That’s interesting.  I own a trotter bred by Richard Hans, and his mother is out of Cams Rocket too. 
Has made $433k.

Depending on how many years racing, but still that is a nice number.

I'm not sure how common it is, but before the - those - that say it's common, sometimes they produce a frankenstein breeding a pacer with a trotter, I'll feel vindicated.

Hope you have a lot of fun and find a lot of success in the game!  :)

The Swedes bred GooGooGaaGaa to some of their mares. It looks like they aren't concerned with having some pacing blood with their trotters

He is also now in Sweden and doing quite well as a sire there.

Thanks.  He’s 9, and is as sure footed as they come.  I count 2 breaks in the 5 years he’s raced for us.

Be there (and get 1-20 odds) !!!

But, but...it says 3-2.  Won't I get $5.00 for my $2.00 bet?   53zva.1

the 3/2 morning line is computer generated and irrelevant

race 6--#2 Ragtime Red will also pay $2.10 to win

both horses were minus win pools last week and with no place or show wagering they will be again

1/9 and another sick performance.  155, won by a ton, and was in hand.

These other horses suck, this fella needs some competition.

1:55.0 ALL ALONE again. Can't tell till he goes out of state. Doesn't seem like he's tugging
or pulling though. Just cruisin. tmbz1

I certainly would NOT call his last two efforts "uncontrollable"

he looked very smooth and well within himself--could have gone 53 and change if they wanted

3 wide into the first turn, very smooth, plus Ahle is taking him 2-3+ wide on all these turns.

I complemented Ocean last week about how fast they were running them.
Well that was last week. Maybe got some advice from Gabe Pruitt. ;D

they had a long delay due to a shoe repair

I think it was before race 3

They moved them fast that night because of a storm that was coming!

There has to be a reason they won't let Ahle grab him, maybe choking or breathing. If you noticed his last 1/4s are getting slower. But Either way he's way better than these.
