My Plea Was Shot Down For Derby Day
Any Chance It Can Be Considered This Time

ANY LATER START WOULD BE DEEPLY APPRECIATED!
Ruffian, I understand your request but traditionally on this forum we play the full card through the Preakness or Derby, etc. Many of us handicapp the card Friday evening and check scratches early next day. The pps are available already. I may start picking and grinning tonight. As I said for the Derby, this is part of the fun for all Big Day race cards. Race 1-13 sticking with tradition.

Default Gotcha

Ok..Understood
Didn’t Realize that it also applied to the Preakness
I thought perhaps it was only for the Derby

I learned something very long ago
When in doubt it never hurts to ask

''...Many of us handicapp the card Friday evening and check scratches early next day''

I ALWAYS Have My Entry Finished On Friday: It's the ''CHECK SCRATCHES EARLY" That Is My Dilemma!
I'll Just Take My Chances That ''CAT SCRATCH FEVER'' Doesn't Hit!
