I agree with what you are saying, I guess Richmond to me has a bigger impact because it was the turning point for Sungold. I was on a business trip in Vancouver in the fall of 97 and I had met with Kim and he said I've got this new project that I have been working on and he gave me at the time a small brochure on Richmond Downs. I thought it was a great idea especially with Don Harris backing it. In my opinion I felt Korea was a long shot and Michigan was taking way to long as far a I was concerned, and before he had pitched this new idea to me I was seriously thinking of selling all my stock. But I know Kim gets many business propositions pitched across his desk every year and he was really pumped about this one. So basically it's Richmond that has kept me going. No matter what people say about Kim Hart, If it wasn't for him all our shares would have been "toilet paper" as archangel would say. He took over a company that was going down the tubes, got it back trading again, hired a management team with a solid track record, brought new deals to the table, and put a lot of his own money into the company. And as far as I am concerned it all started with Richmond, and who knows where it's going to end. I know horsepower is going to be huge and can keep the company growing on it's own but I am stuck on bricks and morter horseracing for now, of course if Horsepower can bring us $20 or $30 US I could be swayed. :>)
