I like going racing when the weather is nice, and unfortunately, the Curragh on Derby day never seems to be nice!

Any day that I'm present for up close and personal viewing is a great day for enjoying the sport.


Any day with a nice card of mixed allowance races, a maiden race or two, and some pricier claiming races is a great and personal favorite day for wagering.

Of course I always love the Big Days with the large pools when I can make a solid and reasonable bet and truly love watching and honoring the winner and connections whether I win my bet or not. Really.
