Not a Lucky Charm

I thought driving to Chicago for the weekend would be helpful in changing our recent luck. That clearly was not the case with our 3 efforts. Depsite what a couple of you have suggested, I was not riding the horses this weekend, so we cannot use extra weight as an excuse. But we do have a few valid excuses to fall back on (Uno Way was in over his head, the 1 and 1/8 mile distance was probably a bit too long for Dawn Raider, and Mooji lost a shoe in the early stages of her race). Excuses aside, it still doesn't change the fact that it was a disappointing trip and I all have to show for the hours behind the wheel is a sore butt!

From what I can see, it will probably get a little worse before it starts to improve - we have a few shots this weekend to try to get this turned around.
