Prospect Bay has moved to WV abd us standing at NayLee for $1,500.

The WVBRED program's share of the slot revenue at Ctown has increased from 1.5% to 3%.

i believe prospect bay was the leading sire in virginia for some time. west virginia-breds can indeed be profitable.

I'm starting a WVBRED 05 WERK A++ filly in training with Stephanie Nixon at www.HorseshoeHill.com this Sunday. My major concern is th eCtown track may be too short for her and that's why i was interested in Mountaineer.

i've noticed that a couple of the civilisations that really bombed at 4.5F have won at 7F but you're still talking two (tight) turns. if you're looking for distance w/o the turns then mountaineer is your only option for the wva breeders incentatives.

I taked to Rene Moore of NayLee and she agrees his get are going to need more than 4.5 to get moving.. She also thinks they will be better 3 YOs than 2 YOs.

I think Civilisation has as good a breeding pedigree as you'll fund anywhere and that kind of quality will find it's nich.
