"Bill Robinson is probsbly the best train- er in North America, and in my estimation I had Io make a business decision. Sometimes wben you get sel in your ways you're reluctant o change, but the first thing Bihl did was go witb no car plugs. no sbadow rol., no vîud support. no quarter boots. no mun down boots and he put a Blackjack bike on im"- said John Lamern.

Mr. Lamers recalled. "Who knows how shings would have worked out if 1hbad done it then.- As tings stand, Lamers is confident Dreamfair Vogel will be a major player in the final Gold Series and the November 16 Super Final and is boping the colt can maintain is momentum througb the Canadian Breeders Championship in late November and the Provincial Cup at Windsor Raceway in early December.
