Second Start Thoroughbreds looking out for the Fort Erie horses...
The near-certain closure of Ontario's Fort Erie racetrack at year’s end means hundreds of people face the loss of their jobs - possibly their careers - and an uncertain future.
It could also mean an uncertain future for the hundreds of racehorses that call the 115-year-old track their home. But thanks to the efforts of a two-year-old program, those horses that won't be shipping to other tracks have an excellent chance of finding a new home and a new career.

It's great that she such positive reactions from the trainers, but I think most small time trainers are like that, are they not? They are doing such a wonderful job, kudos to them and their orgainzation! And how wonderful that Three Chimney's is donating!!!

Neat story in our paper today about one of this year's HOF inductees, Planet, and his local connection.
ASHLAND, Va. --
The great Secretariat was inducted into the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame in 1974, a year after his remarkable Triple Crown run.
Secretariat's Hanover County neighbor, Planet, another historically significant horse, has had to wait a little longer for the same honor.
How much longer? Well, servants at the old Bullfield plantation used to hide Planet in the woods whenever Union soldiers came around.
