Gary Allen (Owner, Breeder)
"You simply can't bottle the thrill of winning a race with your own horse. Racing horses can be such great fun. It brings people together and when there's something worth celebrating it's fantastic. Harness racing has been a lot of fun for me since my involvement started in the early eighties. Getting involved has been a big highlight in my life."
