Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} the Highest of Stakes by Selene Legrom Book Review: the Highest of Stakes by Selene Legrom Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} The Highest of Stakes by Selene LeGrom Book Review: The Highest of Stakes by Selene LeGrom. Okay, let me preface this by saying I’ve never been to Vegas, I can’t play a game of poker to save my life, and my eyes tend to glaze over whenever someone starts talking about gambling. But I loved this story! Daniel Sinclair and Steve Langley have a history. They were both raised in families devoted to professional gambling, families who also hate each other. And now they’re both looking for a partner… Daniel and Steve’s story is moving, sweet, and authentic. (Also, hot. So, so hot…) And Selene does a great job making the gambling exciting and accessible so that even I – an avowed non-gambler – understood what was happening and cared about the outcome of the games. This story does exactly what a good piece of fiction should: It took me to another world, made me care about the people who live there, and left me feeling like I actually learned something. Novel Update: Off with the Betas! But I’m not going to let a few typos stand in the way of PROGRESS! So I’ve sent the novel off to some beta readers to get their feedback. I’ve actually already gotten feedback from two people. But those two people were my husband and my good friend Laura. And they said the book was great! But… of course my husband and my friend are going to say the book was great. (Actually, they both gave me super helpful feedback, which I really appreciated. Once I stopped crying.) So I made the changes they recommended, and then went on to the next step: Sending the book to people I don’t know. People who have no reason to be nice to me. How did I find these beta readers, you ask? Thanks to the magic of the internet! I joined some “Beta Reader” groups on Facebook and then posted my book blurb. And a few wonderful people expressed an interest. YAY. So now The Trickster’s Lover is off in their capable hands. And I’m trying not to freak out as I wait to hear back from them…. The Highest of Stakes. With the jackpot of a lifetime on the line, there's no one Daniel Sinclair would trust with it more than Steve, the one who got away. Steve Langley is a professional gambler from a long line of gamblers, a man only on the edge of the right side of the law. But while society's rules meant little to him, the Langley family's did: never fall in love with a Sinclair. But Steve's never been able to forget clever, beautiful Daniel Sinclair, and when he swaggers back into the game, Steve knows he's lost. Daniel considers himself a smart man, brilliant even, and he's made a discovery that will make the laws of probability sit up and beg. But Daniel's never been able to outsmart his heart, and when he needs a partner to make his dreams come true, he knows exactly who he needs. Writing: Rejection Art! So I’m going indy for my dark, erotic paranormal romance/urban fantasy about Loki ( Got your attention? Check out a preview here ). But I’m also writing sci-fi and speculative fiction under my boring, regular name (yes, this is a pen name). And I’m trying to publish those stories the old fashioned way. Which means banging my head against a brick wall of rejection. Actual footage of Samantha MacLeod. And yeah, I’ve got some coping mechanisms. I wrote a post about them here. And there’s wine. Still, as much as I know writers need to develop a thick skin, that brick wall of rejection hurts. And I’ve noticed I’m sending out fewer and fewer stories. Plus I’m trunking stories faster, sometimes after just four or five rejections. This is not good policy. But rejection sucks. It’s demoralizing. And it’s hard to motivate myself to face it again. And again. And again. Then I stumbled on Map Your Progress, and I ordered this awesome heart: The plan is to fill in one little swirl for every rejection letter. There are 100 swirls – by the time this little heart is a beautiful explosion of color, I’ll have submitted 100 times. And maybe even gotten a few publications. I got a rejection the very same day I got my heart in the mail. Whooo-hooo, I had a reason to color in one cute little swirl! The Highest of Stakes by Selene LeGrom. Sham (USA) April 9, 1970 – April 3, 1993. Pretense (USA) x Sequoia (USA), by Princequillo (IRE) Family 9-h. Although he won the Santa Anita Derby (USA-G1) impressively, Sham gained most of his reputation as the foil for Secretariat's record runs in the 1973 Kentucky Derby (USA-G1) and Preakness Stakes (USA-G1). He came back lame from a workout a few weeks after running an exhausted fifth and last in the Belmont Stakes (USA-G1) and underwent surgery for a fractured cannon bone on July 6, 1973. It was initially hoped that he would be able to come back to racing, but he ended up being retired to stud, where he did well but was not exceptional. Race record. 13 starts, 5 wins, 5 seconds, 1 third, US$204,808. Won Santa Catalina Stakes (USA, 8.5FD, Santa Anita) Won Santa Anita Derby (USA-G1, 9FD, Santa Anita) 2nd Wood Memorial Stakes (USA-G1, 9FD, Aqueduct) 2nd Kentucky Derby (USA-G1, 10FD, Churchill Downs) 2nd Preakness Stakes (USA-G1, 9.5FD, Pimlico) Assessments. Rated at 127 pounds on The Blood-Horse 's Free Handicap for American 3-year-old males of 1973, 9 pounds below champion Secretariat but joint runner-up with Forego. Rated at 129 lbs on the Daily Racing Form 's Free Handicap for American 3-year-old males of 1973, 7 pounds below champion Secretariat but joint runner-up with Forego. As an individual. A handsome, refined dark bay colt with plenty of size and power, Sham stood 16.2 hands. He had a kind and willing disposition and was extremely courageous. In the Kentucky Derby, he shaded Northern Dancer's track record as the runner-up in spite of having torn two teeth out when he slammed his head on the starting gate . Like Secretariat, he held his weight and condition extremely well between the Triple Crown races. An autopsy showed that his heart weighed 18 pounds compared to 8.5 pounds for the heart of a normal Thoroughbred. As a stallion. According to Jockey Club records, Sham sired 347 winners (55.5%) and 44 stakes winners (7.0%) from 625 named foals. The Blood-Horse credits Sham with 47 stakes winners (7.5%). He was an influence for stamina. Notable progeny. Arewehavingfunyet (USA), Jaazeiro (USA) Connections. Sham was bred and owned by Claib o rne Farm. Following the death of A. B. “Bull” Hancock in late 1972, the farm's racing stock was dispersed and Sham was purchased by Sigmund and Viola Sommer for US$200,000, the second-highest price of the dispersal. The colt was trained by Woody Stephens at 2 and by Frank “Pancho” Martin at 3. After being syndicated at a total valuation of US$3 million, Sham entered stud in Kentucky in 1974 at Spendthrift Farm. He later moved to Walmac Farm in November 1992 and died there of an apparent heart attack on April 3, 1993. Pedigree notes. Sham is inbred 5x4x4 to Selene. He is a half brother to stakes winner Dendron (by Tat á n) and to Little Sequoia (by Double Jay), dam of stakes winners Decidedly D (by Decidedly) and Princess Doubleday (by Hitting Away) and second dam of Grade 3 winner Broto. He is also a half brother to Shinnecock (by Tom Fool), dam of Grade 3 winner Top Competitor and stakes winner Poppycock. Sham's dam Sequoia, winner of the 1957 Spinaway Stakes, is a full sister to 1951 Kentucky Oaks and Coaching Club American Oaks winner How, dam of 1965 Kentucky Broodmare of the Year Pocahontas (by Roman). Sequoia is also a full sister to 1954 Coaching Club American Oaks winner Cherokee Rose, second dam of 1971 Horse of the Year Ack Ack and 1974 Futurity Stakes (USA-G1) winner Just the Time. Sequoia and her siblings were produced from The Squaw II (by Sickle), a half sister to 1947 Grand Prix de Paris winner Avenger (by Victrix). The Squaw II is also a half sister to Dynamite II (by Dogat), second dam of 1959 Black-Eyed Susan Stakes winner Toluene. The Squaw II's dam Minnewaska (by Blandford) is out of 1926 Cheveley Park Stakes winner Nipisiquit (by Buchan), also the dam of the good English stakes winner Raymond (by Gainsborough). Sham: In the Shadow of a Superhorse was written by Mary Walsh and released by Aventine Press in 2007. The unpublished manuscript had previously won the Eaton Literary Agency's 2005 award for Best Book. Ms. Walsh also wrote Sham's Dream , a children's book released by Echo Publishing in 2011. Sham: Great Was Second Best was written by Phil Dandrea. A Bronze Medal winner in the Sports/Fitness/Recreation category in the 2011 Independent Publisher Book Awards, the book was released by Acanthus Publishing in 2010..

  • Widden Has Been Well Served in Making Stallions On
    Sebring Zoustar Supido Star Witness Nicconi Your Song Shamus Award Stratum Star Outreach the future is now ANTONY THOMPSON 2018 has seen the fortunes of Widden Stud sires continue to rise. Zoustar emerged as the Champion Australian First Season Sire, following in the footsteps of Your Song who was the Champion First Season Sire by winners last year, while Sebring is powering through the current season with winnings in excess of $9 million and 11 Stakes winners to his credit. Star Witness, Nicconi and Your Song are proven young stakes sires priced affordably to deliver further success. While our younger stallions, Shamus Award, Outreach, Stratum Star and newcomer Supido, will write the next chapter of success. Stallion power is what makes a stud great for generations to come and we believe our current roster of sires is one of the best we have ever presented. It covers all bases, offering large and small breeders a variety of options to achieve the best result for your mare, both commercially and on the racetrack. The ongoing support of our valued clients has built the reputation of our sires and we never underestimate the role you play in that success. It all starts with a good book of mares and goes from there. We look forward to working closely with you to breed the champions of the future. Those future champions are created with decisions you make today – the future is now. ROBERT ANDERSON Antony, Katie and the Widden family have been a large part of my life for the best part of 30 years now.

  • Race to the Derby
    RACE TO THE DERBY Welcome to our annual “Race to the Derby” Fantasy Horse Racing contest at the Pleasanton Off-Track Betting facility! The contest is all about building a fantasy stable of 3-year-old horses and following them through the pursuit of making the Kentucky Derby. The first race of our contest is Saturday, January 7 and it concludes with the running of the Kentucky Derby on Saturday, May 6. THE DEADLINE TO ENTER IS FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 3!!!!! Our scoring system will follow the structure for the Road to the Kentucky Derby prep series again this year, with one exception. The UAE Derby is worth 50-20-10-5 points this year, rather than the inflated value the Derby committee awards for the race. Here’s how you play the contest. To start, pick any 10, 3-year-old horses (as of Jan. 1) for your beginning stable. Points are earned by how the horses finish in the string of races throughout the Derby prep season. The first four finishers in each prep race earn points for their owners. The points are the same used to determine the field for the Kentucky Derby. You can make six drops/additions along the way, but you will only get those six so use them wisely. At the end of the Kentucky Derby the final standings will be determined! You must enter at the Pleasanton OTB facility. Adds/drops can be made via e-mail or in person at the OTB. Send any questions to [email protected]. The cutoff to enter the contest is February 3!!!! Get your entry in earlier and have some fun! One entry per person and must show ID when entering.

    SUNDAY, JANUARY 3, 2021 ‘RISING STAR’ MAKES WINSTAR STABLEMATES OFF TO A FLYING START IN 2021 by Bill Finley ‘GOOD’ IN SHAM Coming off a banner year in which its fillies finished one-two in the GI Coaching Club American Oaks, WinStar Stablemates Racing burst out of the starting gate in 2021 going two-for-two on Friday. The victories included a win by Gulf Coast (Union Rags) in the Cash Run S. at Gulfstream. "It's nice to get of to such a great start and we are very excited for 2021," said WinStar CEO and President Elliott Walden. "To be two-for-two is great for our owners." The WinStar racing partnership is an offshoot of WinStar Stablemates, a club formed in 2011 that allowed members inside access to all things WinStar. Hoping to attract new owners into the business, WinStar branched out and started WinStar Stablemates Racing in 2018. The stable won with its first ever starter, capturing the 2018 Wayward Lass S. at Tampa Bay Life is Good | Horsephotos Downs with Well Humored (Distorted Humor).
