2009 Wishing Well

Tweet I’m not a big resolutions kinda guy, although I write down a couple in my journal every year (along with my weight), so I figured I would jot down a few thoughts to see if I can hit at least 50% on these by next year’s end.

1. NY regulators take a page out of Tampa Bay Downs steward’s rulings and reports to provide the horseplayer and fans more information on inquiries and decisions.

2. A Kentucky horse-related trip in October for my birthday.

3. Spend some quality time at the Lothlorien Therapeutic Riding Center in nearby East Aurora.

4. Buy into a horse partnership.

5. Reevaluate where my investing strengths lie and try not to stray from them (i.e. exactas good; $0.10 superfectas bad).

6. A first time trip to the Big A, during the winter meet.

7. Attend my fourth Belmont Stakes in a row and actually see a triple crown coronation.

8. Fort Erie Race Track is not closed forever. (I was just gettin’ to know ya.)

9. A visit to Woodbine for the Queen’s Plate to meet blog pal, Triple Dead Heat, to continue my quest for a Canadian personal triple crown.

10. A racing commissioner is named and that he/she has some cajones to go with the title.

Honorable Mention: That I don’t have to go through another one of these. Getting old is annoying.

Happy New Year.
