Trigger is correct
Storms were horrible last night, I lost power
Accidents all on backstretch just different spots
Rainman2, the 2 involved last night not normally part of the Scioto colony
Clifton Bell, county fair driver primarily
Schmucker mostly trains, doesn't drive much

One more thing
 How can you give Kevin Lare a conditional license after 9 previous positives and not give Sean Bier the same conditional license?
For practically the same situation!

I liked to hear a judges statement on that!

Great topic Rocco.. good luck at Hoosier this year by the way. tmbz1
I've posted this on here before, but what got me into harness racing the most, even more then growing up in Delaware,and even though our high school is nicknamed the pacers ngc3..was my grandparents and parents. They were small time owners when I was just a little JT. I think the most they owned at one time was about 10. Some of my best memories as a kid were riding in my grandparents old El Camino and traveling the state of Ohio to watch their horses race. All the kids wanted to ride rides, I wanted to be in the barns and grandstand. The look on my Grandfather's face when one of his horses won was priceless. Going out to the farm to watch them train. Also my parents calling me in sick to school during LBJ week ngc3
So to answer your question,  the best part of owning is the memories that are made with family and friends ;D

All they need is his name.

 He needs never to touch the horse.

Its all about the show and everyone knows it. Even the judges.

Kevin is Delawares version of Marylands Wagner.

PRO:
Presumably, we're talking about the 70'd thru 90's when a friday night crowd drew 15-20000 which created a buzz of excitement under the lights as soon as you walked in. 
And if you were a railbird and saw the drivers silks under the lights and were able to absorb the wafting "aroma", you may have gotten the bug..
and if you lurked around the winners circle wondering what the "thrill of victory" feels like, you got the bug...
And if you were an excitement junkie and/ or a gambler, it doesnt matter if its a 5 claimerf or a 50k claimer, nothing beats the thrill of winning and cashing on your own horse...
Being around the backstretch and making friends and acquaintances of some hardwoirking people who love the animals...that rubs off...Bringing kids and friends to feed the horses down the shedrow...and developing a relationship with your horse..
next thing you purchase a baby (horse, that is, I'm no trafficker) and watch her clear each hurdle on the way to making her race track debut--what could be better than a win?
But for me, it was the ability to actually participate at whatever level- walking him,  up to jogging him or even participating in an amateur or exhibition race.
Thats my pros--done typing...

Very hard to be a new owner wanting to get into the game. It almost forces you to seek out and hire a chemical trainer to make bills and a few bucks. Real horseman trainers are facing a uphill battle to just get the owner even unless you have one with unlimited funds..

You are giving him way too much credit. He is far from a chemist. He has a drench. Im sure plenty baking soda.
He just served days not too long ago. His paper trainer and horses didnt even have to move barns. That was really nice of northfield not to make him move.
