2024 - Twos In Training - Nancy Takter 

Excellent video and great idea to focus on the moderate price yearlings.

I hope the Tall Dark Strangers do well. He became my favorite horse ever because of how game he was. I never saw a horse that loved a fight like he did. Good luck Nancy and Team Takter.

I think the price reductions reflects the economy but great for you Nancy have a fabulous season with everyone there.

I remember seeing Nancy at the barn with her Mom when I worked with her Dad while he was asst. trainer for Team Nordin.

good interview

Always a great interview with all your host and trainers love listening to them and seeing these babies start racing but there is a big problem that I see. It is very sad to see horse racing both Thoroughbred and Harness racing. Not attracting younger people, especially on a platform like RU-vid and others online shows the reason I say this is what all your great interviews there is never anyone commenting and only a few likes and views. I grew up around racehorses and I Love the horses. And racing I am going to be 59 years old and mostly the only reason I watch RU-vid is for your shows and other shows with harness racing and thoroughbred racing, but it seems to be there is no interest in the younger generation either for the animal or for the horse racing and that goes for both. Thoroughbred, racing and harness racing I have to admit I have not been to the new Meadowland since it’s been built, but I do to Monmouth Park and Belmont when they are open, I watch almost all of your twos for training and your post time show. But you the only one besides your other host that does a show thoroughbred racing has many many shows and they promote their Sport. With TV shows online shows and so much other and I’m not telling you anything that you don’t know, but it is a real shame that harness racing cannot do the same times it seems to be a sad experience to watch. For instance, I watch breeders crown races on TV and also talk to people that were at certain facilities over the past five or so years with no one in the attendance they can’t even fill a canopy outside on one of the greatest nights of harness racing what I say the only shot harness racing has is in Ohio, and maybe some other midwest states and Kentucky for a short season it has Lexington. Keep up the good work and I wish the best of luck to all of the trainers and owners that participate in the racing game. One more thing Heather, I have to ask when you are interviewing some of these trainers and owners can you ask them not to call. “.The. Horse A Thing “. I listen to a lot Drivers and Trainers will refer to the Horse. Example breed is crown night and just your pest interview. I believe with Andrew Harris they would say something like this thing can fly. It’s really doesn’t sound nice on TV or in an interview when they were referring to an animal as a thing. It’s not a good look thoroughbred owners trainers, and Joes never say anything like that. They are very well spoken on TV and in interviews referring to an animal calling it a Think. When people hear that I can’t speak for all, but for myself, it seems like the trainer or the driver has no respect for the horse, though I’m sure they all do but to someone outside of the racing game it might sound like that are all racetrack people trainers, drivers caretakers love the horses. I think some even love the horse before the money, but like I said to a person that’s not around and doesn’t know the lingo. it might sound kind of mean spirited with that good night keep up the great interviews. Looking forward to the next.
