Would it be an act of hubris to drop in a couple worthwhile nuggets the Steward may have overlooked in assembling our representative bios?

[The Steward]

Go right ahead, I don't mind one bit.

[John Slotmon]

Jolly Good and Performing Tricks. Just had to add those two. Thanks!

[Amy Bahama]

I also race/raced Plane, Desert, Snake, Deuce Coupe, Cancelled and several others.

Make sure you vote!! Since this thread began we have a new leader!!!

[John Slotmon]

Does Rob really have 700 stakes wins in 2,000 starts?

[Rob Canterbury]

No actually I have almost 2000 wins ( I think I am 20 away)


I have 719 stakes wins out of 6500 starts.

Ranked # 9 in stakes wins of all simsters...

hope that clarifies

[The Steward]

Sorry, too-fast typing. Brain said stakes wins out of wins, hands wrote starts!

[Scott Eiland]

I'm up for the Hall of Fame? I'm honored.

I think John summed up my accomplishments. Three TB Stewards Cups, Ball of Fire, Lucy. Rodolphus and Regulus Arcturus are also mine, as well as Millionaire's Son. His dam Brat won a Louisville Oaks...but I think the main reason I could be selected on the first ballot has to do with my off-track stuff (writing for the Feature Race, then my own stuff along with podcasting.)

Thanks for your consideration. I'm out of the country right now, so my online time is short. Good luck everyone!
