Default Saturday Venue Suggestions

Since we are still unsure about the Points Contest, how about Belmont at Aqueduct races 3-11 or Santa Anita 1-9. I myself prefer Santa Anita. Any thoughts?

Personally I don't try think it's a good time to do a split card.

No to a split card. I'll have points totals up shortly.

Santa Anita sounds good to me. It might be one of the only places with no rain all weekend.

Of the venues that have been mentioned, I would lean toward RQ's suggestion of Santa Anita races 1-9. While the Aqueduct races are important, the fields are kind of small for 3 of the 4 stakes races. The Santa Anita stakes races are at least marginally better.
