It was fun tonight - never have been at Turfway, boy, it was packed until the end! (those $1 beers I guess). Serious smokers, gamblers, and beer for everyone!
I thought Rampillion looked really good in the paddock, almost like she's growing a bit in her hind end, and was well-muscled. She calmed down and got serious as soon as TC saddled her. Down the straight she really seemed like she had the 11 in her sights. I thought she was a bit proud of herself when she came back, too (but hey, I anthropomorphize
)
Thanks TC & Chuck! Nice start to 2009!
