Slightly off topic, yesterday I galloped a couple of dozen 5yo's that have been sitting idle since racing in Alaska last w14, six of them have went to allowance from productive, the majority were sired by Benjamin. Not bad for such a small sample size.

Week 7 updates are in...

Walter Moquin and Ciano Colly both picked up their first career wins. Congrats to you both!

Before getting to the big number, I want to welcome a few people to the AW Route winners circle after a long absence.

Jolene Danner - first win since Year 48
Karie McBrian - first win since Year 46
David Lozada - first win since Year 45

Welcome back to all 3 of you!

Now, the big one...

Kasie Gillespie has become the 12th person in SIM history to reach 400 AW Route wins. Kasie is coming off a career best year where she won 34 AW Route races last year. If you see a dental themed name in a race, you should probably avoid that race if possible!!!
