Shelbyville, Indiana is in one of the 80 counties in Indiana that are located in the Eastern time zone (those 12 or so in the Central time zone are close to metropolitan areas such as Chicago).
I don't think we have ever taken our contest journey to Indiana. Given that after this weekend we will probably spend a lot of time at either Saratoga or Del Mar, a change of pace sounds just Grand. If that's what you pick, I'm game.
If things go badly after a few races for Hoosier-breds, we can all take a page from the score of The Music Man (even though it was set in Iowa) and sing that "We've got trouble, with a capital T which rhymes with P ...."
And if you want to throw more of The Music Man at us, bring it on. My oldest daughter once played in a local production as Ethel Toffelmier, the pianola girl. I saw quite a few performances even though she only had a couple of lines.
