Dave Palone Part 2-- A Day in the Life -- Hoof Beats 2012 [14:28]
The Hoof Beats crew spent the day (Tuesday May 15th) with driver Dave Palone and his family. We followed Dave from his house to lunch to "The Meadows" then back home for dinner and a ride in their arena with the kids. We picked an interesting day to go with Dave as he didn't win the number of races he usually does, but that just shows he doesn't always get the best drives or win all the time. This is part 1 of 3.

With buses from all over the province converging on Queen's Park, more than 1500 individuals, including MPPs, representatives from all of Ontario's horsemen's groups and other political representatives, congregated in order to let elected leaders and the mass media know that the industry will not take the Liberals' hasty, misinformed, and reckless decision in stride. In closing multiple raceway slots parlours and planning to step away from the economic machine which is the slots-at-racetracks program, the Provincial Liberal Government has essentially taken the stance that employing 60000 Ontarians, raking in more than $1.36-billion in direct annual revenue, and creating $2-billion in annual economic impact for the province is not worth trumpeting, let alone saving.
