The Lucky Box!
For those who’ve been reading this “Frankly Speaking” column since the start of the meet, you’ll remember how I wrote about how my box—28H, which I co-own with my buddy Ciaran Thornton—was a lucky one on Opening Day. Well, let’s just say that after Race 9, the Eddie Read (G2), on Sunday, July 30, box 28H is now 2-for-2 on the meet when an owner sits there, so that means our box is tied for first place in wins with wherever Reddam; Barber; and Bello & Bartlett sit, since those three owners have two wins so far this meet as well! Is there a prize for “Winningest Box?” I doubt it, but there should be!
