#ed_op#/P#ed_cl##ed_op#P#ed_cl#It's not like people just came trapsing onto the back stretch, that would NEVER happen, you need passes to be on the backstretch. There is obviously security and for obvious reasons. But, near the end of the racing season, we often had people who were allowed to come take a look at horses that were going to be for sale at the end of the season, or who were already for sale, as of now, due to an injury, or lack of talent. You needed to be "invited" into the backstretch...meaning...... you had to be announced at the security gate, and the trainer would be responsible for you diuring your time there.. So, people would often call the trainers up on their own (w/the number they got from the race office), make a scheduled appointment, so the trainer could be available to show them around. Once on the backstretch, they were only allowed to be w/the trainer/onwer etc, and once they were done, they were escorted off the backstretch. There is protocal they must follow, but it is done. This is how it was/is done at our race track here in MB, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it happens in other provinces.#ed_op#/P#ed_cl##ed_op#P#ed_cl# #ed_op#/P#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#spotz wrote:I don't know about other provinces but in Ontario you can't just go to#ed_op#BR#ed_cl#the track & look around for a horse to buy.....most horses are at#ed_op#BR#ed_cl#the track for training/racing & these are usually not the ones#ed_op#BR#ed_cl#their selling as riding horses. #ed_op#BR#ed_cl#
