This is true

1) Pick Four CARRYOVER pools if no one has 4 of 4

2) 50k Guaranteed Pick Six on Saturdays, if no one hits it, it carrys to the following Saturday

3) JOCKEY CHALLENGE. Pari-mutuel pool on 5 specific days where you can bet on a jockey and who has the greatest mutual payouts for WPS.

I am a huge fan of 1 and 2, could care less about 3.

PICK SIX for Arlington, oh man.....

1 and 2 are AWESOME. I am all over both.

What do you mean drop? He has enough horses to have a string at every track.

This site gives a list of all his horses and what tracks they are at.
It shows that he currently has 5 bedded down at Arlington. It shows a
active horse list.

Try this

Sorry if it doesn't work. Graham Motion has a site like this and it works fine,

I don't understand why the tracks just can't add more cushion for the dirt courses. I picked up some poly at Keeneland and it had what looked like colored sprinkles that kids put on their ice cream. It just seems like a big con deal to me. I believe one of the main reasons why breakdowns were so high is because the majority of horses were doped up on drugs that made them feel no pain.

But hey, wtf do I know? It's obvious the powers that be have the right answers. :rolleyes:

Really? I knew he was going to AP because he asked my friends rider to go there to ride for him.

Scav	04-24-2007 08:27 PM

My guess is that DeCarlo would come here and ride for him????

Maybe if Mena came here he would use him as he used him at Turfway

I doubt he would use anyone from the Illinois colony unless it was Guidry and he will be real selective with his rides this meet I am guessing

I was on the backstrecth the other day and asked a trainer I knew he said he didn't think he was going have a division, but last year he showed up a couple weeks late. I guess we will wait and see

This from a press release I got

Scace and Pearson will be joining the tough cast of Delaware Park regulars which include Scott Lake, Steve Klesaris, Tim Ritchey, Michael Gorham, Anthony Dutrow, J. Larry Jones, Michael Pino, Howard Wolfendale, Jonathan Sheppard, Michael Matz, and H. Graham Motion, and Mike Zwiesler.

Arlington's Jockey Colony

Rene Douglas
Albarado - huh? why coming here??
Jesse Campbell - represented by Dennis Cooper, who represents Douglas
Joel Campbell - brother exactas running rampart
LAVIOLETTE - Mark Guidry is his agent, I CAN'T wait to talk **** to the Guid now, because I really like him as a jockey, but representing this bum is his worst decision of all time. Guidry must not like making money
Emigh - nuff said
Betancourt - randy romero is his agent

Douglas wins this jockey title by Arlington Million Day......
