Steve

I think I speak for all in thanking you for giving us a sense of normalcy in these less than normal times. You are a Treasure to us Horseplayers

Remember Jms, normalcy is not a word per Nick Tammaro on Friday's show...lol

I agree and as stated thanks Steve!
I wish every man and beast health and prosperity in these trying times.

Missed it but Nick is one of the BEST in this business. What he says is how he honestly feels. Can we ask for more?

"They only handicap the best horses"
 

Good Luck and health to all
Thanks for the friendship to all:o

Hey guys.. Happy to do what I can for the 'normality'. Stay safe.

Great job today Steve!:$::tro:

Congrats and thanks as always.

Thanks for providing a bit of normalcy in these bizarre times.

Hope all is well with you and yours.

Larry..

Thanks. Glad to get some of what was available. Hope many benefited.

Tina and I pretty well recovered after being sick all week. Stay safe!

As usual, I’m late to the party but I just watched the replays of Saturday at Fairgrounds and my god you missed a huge hit on the P5 in that photo.

Great day of handicapping for you, Steve. Got the P4 and were a blonde hair away from a 4 digit P5.

It’s an honor to lurk here, sir.

I missed this one. Nice work Steve
