So the Cella would have had what 10k on a Friday show up.. Now he will have 75k.. I have no idea what the handle typically is on a Friday at Oaklawn but he should make back a significant amount with the increased handle and gate. Good for him

I've been there on 65,000 plus days. Not really fun because of the long betting lines. Hell lines for everything will be long that Friday and Sat. Riverwood Inn in Glenwood still has rooms. 70 bucks a night in a quite little town. Also has a great golf course right across from it. Like I said me, Danzing, Pistol are a few people to listen too about the track. Little Rock is just as close to Hot Springs as Glenwood but is a way larger town.

i suggest lake degray. they have a lodge there as well, but they do have a very nice campground. about a half hour south of hot springs.
we ate at the porterhouse steak and seafood a few weeks back-very good!
