Winning Relationship

We’re back in Columbus after spending all of Sunday driving back from New Jersey. It’s good to be back home and now it’s time to get to work on putting together all the stories, photos and videos we gathered while we were out at the Hambletonian.

I spent some of the day working on a Hoof Beats story about Hambletonian Oaks winner Broadway Schooner. I found out that Jim Campbell, who conditions Broadway Schooner, also trained her sire, Broadway Hall, and dam, Pine Schooner. It really speaks to Campbell’s longtime relationship with owner/breeders Arlene and Jules Siegel that he is now training champions of champions under the Fashion Farms banner. Campbell said it was a special win for him and the Siegels, who also won the 1995 Hambletonian with Tagliabue.

I’m excited about the September issue, which will be packed with extensive Hambletonian coverage and a Little Brown Jug preview section that I’m sure you’re going to like.

Cheers,
T.J.
