Testimony
Best Experience as an Owner:
When Chris McCarron asked to ride one of my horses.
What I like about Thoroughbred Racing:
It is a total experience of exhileration, from flagfall to finish. No matter the price tag.
How I Became a Thoroughbred Owner:
Lost so much betting horses, thought it might be cheaper to own one. WRONG!
Best Advice:
Buy a more expensive horse if you can afford it, rather than a cheaper one. It cost the same to get to a race that has a larger purse.
Owner Bio

I bought (claimed), against my trainers judgement, my first horse at Pomona, Ca. in 1981 (That's him in the picture with me. I now listen to Ted a lot more.), and Ted West was my trainer. Today, 06/12/13, as i add my name to the list of (very rich owners)  :-} Ted West still trains for me. I don't know about Ted but, i have not made a ton of money. However, we certainly have one main thing in common. We both have gotten alot older! I would like to think that we have not changed in all of those years. Honest, straight forward, respectful, and friends.
