Ga'luk to all!!! The weather appears to be perfect.

I've never played Tampa Bay Downs, but looking forward to posting on Saturday! Good luck everyone!

Welcome to our small but enthusiastic group, Alli. We're very glad to have you join us.

Welcome Alli.

Very happy your joining the group. It will help to read the basic rules and "how tos", if you haven't already done so. Don't be afraid to ask questions at any time. We are a friendly group of horse and horse racing lovers. You'll likely get more feedback than you need.

If you do't mind let us know what part of the US or Canada or ??? you live in and any tracks that might be your favs. Not being nosey just interested.

Again, great to have you in the family. Good luck on your maiden run.:)

Thanks everyone!
 

Thanks for making me feel so welcome! I look forward to getting to know everyone.

I live in Virginia, but have lived all over. Fell in love with racing at Del Mar...sigh. Such a beautiful place. I've been to Del Mar many times, Santa Anita a few, Colonial Downs and Charlestown...bucket list is Churchill Downs, Old Friends....

I feel like I know the California tracks better, but think that might be a curse sometimes. Biases can hinder handicapping and not knowing some of the trainers/owners/jockeys in the east might be a good thing...you look at the race without those biases...with an open mind. Sometimes, it's better to trust the signs the horse is giving more than the peripherals.

Thanks for the welcome. This sounds like fun! Thanks to @plenilune for the invite.

Welcome Alli. Glad you found your way here. We like our contests here and we love the sport of horseracing most importantly the horses.
