Trained Beach today (Friday) in 2:05, scoped clean immediately following the trip. His white blood cell count is down and everything seems positive. We plan to head to Kentucky at the first of the week.

Hey Brent, great job in the Bluegrass with Beach. Hope he's got a tick or 2 more in the Tattersalls. Best of luck. Just keep Boycie away from the Appleton while he's in Kentucky. Talk to you when you get back home.

Best of Luck in Lexington;
Have been following SBSW from day one wish you and your group continued good sucess. Hope you bring the world record
home here to Truro. We are all pulling for you and will be watching via simalcasting. Best thing that has happened to harness racing in the last forty years. So go gettem tiger. See you when you get home.

Good Luck to you and your partners.
Looks like the Beach makes his own luck. Proud of the
way you have managed him and stuck to your program.
All Maritimers are proud of you and the Beach.

Brent , We are following your horse with great anticipation . This has been the best good news story in harness racing in many a year. Continued Good Luck !!! Frank Mac Innis , Creignish , Cape Breton

Best of luck to you ,the horse and paul.I am very impressed with paul's driving ,when he was in the stretch that fatefull day and was going to get beat ,paul did not whip his ass off. He knew he was going the best he could and there would be another day . My hat goes off to paul as one of the truly great drivers, who truly cares about his horses. Great choices by you as trainer,as per driver,the races to enter and not racing the piss out of this young horse when he was 2 and again this year . You can tell i'm from the old school,HALIFAX COMMONS,SACKVILLE DOWNS,TRURO RACEWAY AND FREDERICTON . . ALL ATLANTIC CANADA AND ALL OF CANADA IS CHEERING FOR YOU. GOOD LUCK AND GO GET THEM .

great job with the beach brent, i watched the horse from day one,lots of luck in lexington thanks for all the trills keep up the great work with that pacing machine.i hope you break the world record

My wife and I are going to watch a great horse race in the Tattersalls Pace at the Red Mile. The track will be fire red as the "Beach" blazes a trail to the winner's circle once again. I can't wait for October 4th at Lexington. See you there and good luck!!!

Good Luck in Kentucky Brent, bring the world record home to the Maritimes where it belongs, as most of this sport is being dominated by Maritimers......

I can't wait to see him get the world record. Good luck we know he's the best and he'll show it.

you already made nova scotia proud,not only for the races,
but your a gentleman.
go get them

Hold your head up high and be proud of the way you,the ownership group and SBSW have have represented a an industry and a country so despartately in need of a figurehead and hero. I hope that all the so called "experts" that questioned your pre-planned sched. and had the gall to call you out on a wise decision to follow a set plan and schedule that you laid out for THE BEACH at the beginning of the year and not waver by going to the JUG also have the decency to admit that they should just shut up and enjoy the thrills and memories that are being created everytime you come to race this magnificent animal.
Good luck and go get 'em,
Thanks for the thrills and memories.

Brent and "SOMEBEACHSOMEWHERE" .....go and get that 3 year record back; we'll all be watching and wishing the "beach" the VERY best of luck from Vancouver,BC

You go get them remenber we are all watching proud !!!!luck luck luck your way!!!!

WTG Brent....Best of luck in Kentucky. SomeBeach is a beautiful horse to watch race.

this is a great horse but your management made him greater
good luck and go get that world record

The Cat

Good luck Brent I'm sure the economy of the nearest pancake house just went through the roof...that is as long as someone else is buying..go getem SBSW

good luck in lexington

To keep a horse this good every start is an outstanding accomplishment. Your management skills are outstanding. I believe you manage the horse as an athlete, no different than any other sport. I am sure some of the sports top trainers are taking notice(and envious) of your abilites. Continued success

best of luck from all raceing fans in cape breton , see you in the winners circle.

Good for you. Go get em tiger!!! You Beachy Beach Beacher Preacheer.

Good to hear that your colt is healthy. Congratulations on your achievements so far, truly professional and outstanding. Best of luck in Kentucky.

Sorry to hear of your Dad's passing this summer. He would be very proud of you. I have good memories of him at Tumblewind Farm with Cyril and Gerry.

Hi Brent
Like the way you handled this horse.
The horse that beat you a nostril couldn't normally get close to you.
Showed in the jug.
Best of luck next week.
He's the best.
Will be watching from Owen Sound.

Brent we here in Truro wish you and Beach the best of Luck.
Have a safe trip.
