I took Sandy down to the end of the front straight at DuQuoin a couple of years ago. There's a spot there in the infield where the wall makes a zig-zag. I positioned her there in the corner, stood behind her and as the field came down to take the Green, I loving wrapped my arms around her, preventing her from bolting as the still massed field pitched their cars sideway, bumpers pointed right towards us. Two things I learned that day, 1) Adrenaline make people REALLY strong and 2) She didn't learn THOSE words in Catholic School!
Now that's where you'll find her for the start of every Crown race, down at the end of the front straight as close to the inside guard rail as possible.
