I guess I should be happy I never have any idea what Gales is talking about.

Does anybody?

Ugh. There was a horse I loved in the turf baby race.

Thank you, BTW. It makes my work tonight a bit less of a guessing game. Now I have to guess who might stay in.

You're welcome.

If I can help just one person......

Glad I saw this. Just home from work and was gonna dig into the card some more. Now it seems as if sleep will come early tonight and golf, instead of horse racing, will be the plan of attack tomorrow afternoon.:tro:

I haven't been there in at least a year....and probably longer. I wish I had the time.

You have to stop believing the nonsense you hear that concerns me. It's all BS.

With the amount of wind and rain they are calling for on Thursday, I think you have a good chance of seeing a cancellation.

Expect no turf till Saturday and that would be pushing it with this much rain forecast for Thursday.

They're not taking the races off the turf Saturday.

True, forgot what Sat was for a second. Either way. Tough to see anything but soft or yielding at post for the stakes.

Remember last year's turf condition? It made Interpatation a Grade I winner.

True enough, though Gio is a hanger.
