The track was a little muddy Friday but I was happy with my run. I felt quite confident I could out turn Jim Knight, Tim Haroldson and Sean Debolt and I told my outriders that they had better be ready because they were going to have to catch me because I was going to get to the front end. I didn’t make a good turn (Sloppy Barrel Turn). I was driving my son Ryans lead team and I did not drive as well as Ryan. I got to the front end going down the back stretch, I took their heads a bit then sent them down the lane and they flattened out at the wire. Saturday morning we had a track meeting and decided to maintain the track as we have had no complaints from drivers and felt we were seeing some of the best races that had been run in Calgary for years. My wife, daughter, son and Barn Crew are getting things done and a big helps so I can have piece of mind and focus on racing. Going into tonight’s race I drew the 4 barrel, I drove three of the same horses I drove Friday and borrowed a right leader from Brian Laboucane. My plan was to go high on my top barrel, go slow and drop in. I turned far better than I expected and was hung 4 wide then made a quick decision to pull and head to the rail behind Jason Glass. I tucked in behind and followed his stove rack for 6th day money.
