I'll just save everyone's fingers from typing right now. These fields are crappy, NYRA sucks, racing blows, etc.

How the **** do the NYRA/DRF diehards find the nuts to criticize other tracks when this is what they're drawing these days? 6 for the Wood?

Put a fork in the NYRA tracks: they're done. Luckily, WO is opening this week.

Is the $500k P4 guaranteed still in effect?

Default Filly denied entry
After initially defending their choice to allow entry to the 3-year-old filly Nicky Boy in Saturday's Grade 1, $750,000 Wood Memorial, New York Racing Association officials came to their senses and denied her entry into the Wood.

You forgot the fields are short.. Nada Superfecta bet to be had. I do admit though the Wood field looks good.

The Wood and Carter are both really good quality wise, but the other 2 races are a joke.

There is no defending it...this is an embarrassment to horse racing. Why don't these tracks start kicking out the cowards who won't race their horses?

Trust me Im not defending it. I am truly disapointed, I was planning on going to Aqueduct on Saturday, now there is no way I will go. The entire card is a joke, the maiden race 2 is about as bad a race I can remember, it belongs being run on the inner in December. Race 3 is the same old **** horses we have been seeing, then a bunch of NY Bred **** horses.

You should go in a chicken costume and heckle the owners and trainers.
