The two best anti-aging remedies I've been fortunate enough to find are running and breeding Thoroughbreds on our small upstate New York farm.

This fall, most roads have led out of Central Kentucky...and the roads are filled with horse vans taking mares away from the "Horse Capital of the World."

Ohio has a dilemma. Current costs exceed the state budget by $850 million. Gov. Ted Strickland is faced with two options: a) raise taxes, or, b) support an executive order permitting video lottery terminals at racetracks to address the economic shortfall.

Racing and breeding, already facing serious challenges going into the recession, now face an even larger and more daunting list of crises. The time to act is now, before Thoroughbred racing retreats to county fair status or goes away altogether.
