Welcome edit

Hi RacingArchivist. Thanks for the improvements on the Mornington Cannon article (and the barnstar :)! If you are interested, there is a Wikiproject you can join dedicated to horse racing with a discussion board if you need help with article formatting or racing info. Commonly used templates include the Thoroughbred horse info box, Jockey/trainer/owner info box and guidelines for making sortable tables. Froggerlaura ribbit 03:28, 15 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
