Player Bio
I started my pari-mutuel experiences at Dog Tracks in New England most frequently at Lincoln Downs. Upon moving to Pennsylvania in 2001 I found PA to be rich in equine heritage and had ample venues to craft my new hobby of Thoroughbred handicapping. My golf game has suffered, since Saturdays and Sundays when I had the most time to golf is usually spent handicapping. I have 3 children, and been married over 30 years to a great girl who has progressed to the point of wanting to know what contests I am playing in daily. I have developed many great friendships along the way visiting race tracks and participating in as many handicapping contests as I can.
