I Just Got Back From Monmouth Park....
 
the place looks great...i stayed for the first race and hit the place horse at 11-1!

( much thanks to the kind man for that selection in the paddock)

the track looks good...everyone seems to be very excited and i heard no one complain about the surfaces.

i took some pics...does anyone know how to post pics on this site?

Who didn't complain about the surfaces? I need names

:)

upload the pics to photobucket.com. once it's there it gives you the html link and you just click that little mountain thing in the toolbox and insert the html address.

Did they set up any kind of jumbotrons on the infield? I was there Sunday and I did not see any kind of big screens in the infield or paddock area's.

Wow, nice! Thanks!

Those look like awfully narrow apron seats .... got a real life assessment?

philcski 10-24-2007 08:29 PM
Wow... been there many times and never seen it look so good. Can't wait for Friday/Saturday.

real life.....

honestly...i was excited to be there. this opportunity may never happen again for me. I asked a walker where steet sense was, he told me the horses were on the far side of the park in a quarantine barn. there was no chance of seeing him or the other big stars.

yes it was cloudy with a little drizzle, but to see ESPN, TVG and Brad Thomas handicapping, you could feel the excitement.

just being there was f'n great! i'm glad i slipped out of work too.

I'm heading over there right now and have heard from people who work there as well as others that the biggest complaint has been how small the temporary seats are. I've heard that if you overweight at all, you ain't fitting in them. Heading there now to check it all out though.

I live 15 minutes away and it hasn't rained since about 3am this morning and isn't supposed to rain for the rest of the day either as far as I've seen.
