It looks as if it might take a fair amount of time to handicap the card at the Fair Grounds (if that's where we are taken). The fields for most of the races are full to overflowing, especially the turf races. I'm certain that you noticed that the Risen Star had so many entrants that it had to be broken into two separate divisions, with 11 and 12 runners respectively.

I don't follow the Fair Grounds as much as some other tracks, but have often wondered whether they have a greater percentage of scratches because their entries are taken so much earlier than most other tracks.
