calling for rain wed. we gonna be off the turf for thursday dan-o? gotta long flight, need to cap appropriately

Initially thought we'd be ok, was supposed to arrive by 7AM Wednesday and be sunny by 11AM. Now looking like it won't get here until noon, I'd have to assume at least the early races would be off.

I would think Thursday will be fine

They carded 3 on the turf starting with the 5th. It really boils down to when it gets here and how long it stays.

The Greenskeeper has a tendency to be awfully discriminating mid-week

Friday and Saturday on for sure, Wednesday definitely off, Thursday 50-50 (they've been taking off all but the last race recently on borderline days... would not shock me to see that either)

Weather is already passed, some showers and some fairly stiff wind, but basically a non-event. Turf should be fine tomorrow if I had to guess

Off both days and will be trackside tomorrow before you are out of bed.

I've found the trick to these weekends is getting the capping out of the way as early as possible. I'm half way through tomorrow's card and digging into Friday's card tonight. Between Show Parlays in the Grunder pub, to Derby Lane, to golf, there are precious few moments of down time between first posts.

Have fun guys. Looking forward to hearing the stories.

Just a few suggestions:
Only Eng Chan firsters in the show parlay
Scream "DEANO" like a 5 year old girl if he wins a nickel claimer. But it has to be loud enough to warrant the possibility of a restraining order, or else it doesn't count.
And someone please buy the douchie guy a beer, he needs friends
