Yes JB, Royal Ascot is very special from start to finish. We can't get it here until Saturday but it surely is a show. Patty and I attended the Breeders Cup the year it was at Lone Star. They spiffed it up for the big day, basically being a very nice second tier track.
We haven't been back for three years at least. The early years after LSP opened Steve Asmussen was racing a lot of his horses there and of course winning a lot of races. Not sure if he started there but LSP opened in 1997.
