7 days until they drop the bomb at GP
While the world at large frets over NY's inability to deal with something everybody else figured out a decade ago, and still missing the Met Mile on Memorial Day, at least we horseplayers have something to look forward to: barring a kick in the guts on Saturday or Sunday, we are going to have the mother****ingest mandatory payout of all time on Memorial Day at GP. Last year one of our number took down a share ($5500?) on a ticket that cost like $56. Of course that was based on a $.10 increment, and this year it is $.20--which probably means the pool will be driven upwards even more than it might have been under the former structure.
Thank you, GP, for this wonderful distraction.
