Flagdown is a veteran sim player and while he doesn’t make a lot of noise, he is\u00a0quietly competitive.\u00a0 He keeps all 15 of his stables at the Pastures Of Green Residency and is very active there, running a\u00a0yearly Versatality contest every fall and\u00a0helping out whenever needed.\u00a0 This past August, he and fellow Pastures resident Dixiedotco kept the Pastures crowd highly\u00a0entertained with their coast to coast\u00a0personal handicap contest – Del Mar vs Saratoga.\u00a0\u00a0I couldn’t let this introduction close without mentioning, that\u00a0one of the very best things that\u00a0he does, is promote the Greyhound Rescue Organization.\u00a0 Here is Steve’s snapshot.\u00a0\u00a0<\/FONT><\/SPAN><\/P>
