Hey all,
I know I don't post a lot. But just wanted to give everyone an update that after two years as racing secretary at Century Mile. I have taking a position in the racing department at NYRA. I am excited for the move and loved my time here in Edmonton, but am looking forward to this change. It's been a long time in the works. I am certainly open to suggestions for food and the like in the Belmont/Aqueduct area, but also for Saratoga in the summer. I have been to Belmont/Aqueduct but never Saratoga, so this summer will be a very different one for me.
Just wanted to pass the news along, and say thanks for all the support along the way. It's a long ways from being a guest on the paddock show at Assiniboia.
-Rob

Exciting news Rob. Pick some winners because your housing costs are going up! But those weeks in Saratoga are priceless.

Thanks everybody! I am so excited to get down there and get my feet wet, and then obviously thrilled to go to Saratoga. I'm not sure I totally know what to expect, but I'm pumped to find out.

Rob, congratulations!! You'll have a memory for life when you see Belmont and Saratoga in person for the first time. Don't forget to make a side trip to Monmouth Park while you're here.
