perfect! since everyone with ideas also volunteered to pay for shipping....

awwwwww.....jest go back to playin with yer headlights

Who knew it would be so tough to get into a race! Well anything can happen so I am hoping that we are able to draw in. Can't wait to see her run. Her reports sound so promising.

My god, the purse is 4k?? That is HORRIBLE

I believe that is better than Fairmont

are they still open?

was wondering how soon we would know if she managed to come off the also-eligible and get in via a scratch

day of the race day before? any idea?

I am not counting on it but it has happened

Day of race I think, last time was around 10am CST

Scratch time is 7am on Wednesday.

Thanks. Just enough time for me to make a last minute trip. Of course that is assuming we will be notified at 7:01 am

(5 hour drive for me)

Finally..

I will plan to go regardless of the weather

Looks pretty good ...

Okay, I can make her debut - anybody else? Wing?

I'm planning on it (again)

Rampillion
Sire Came Home gets over 12% 2yo debut winners; sire won 9 of 12 for $1.8 million, was incredibly versatile - won the G1 Hopeful (7fs), G1 SA Derby (1 1/8ms) and G1 Pacific Classic (1 1/4ms), also won multiple G2s; unraced dam's 1st foal to race; full work tab indicates there's plenty of bottom here.
