			 I was thinking the Fair Grounds.  If there are any other suggestions please reply. Even though it's all state breds the other stake racing is slim. If so I was thinking races 1 to 12 but you can use race 13 in the ROI. I'll post the venue Thursday after any responses are made.

			 I don't envy you the choice, RQ.  There simply aren't any really good ones this Saturday.  I agree that the Louisiana Champions Day at the Fair Grounds is probably the best available, after all, every horse is a state bred somewhere. 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
		
		
	
	
	![]()    Your suggestion of limiting the points contest to races 1-12 makes good sense. By the way, I noticed a runner named Fort Polk in race 9. Seeing that name could bring back dark memories to anyone who was of draftable age in the late 60's.  |

			 Looks Like the Belmont Stakes will be at Saratoga for the next two years. At a mile and a quarter. Going to be strange.

			 Can you imagine how crowded the Spa might be if a Triple Crown is on the line?

			 Belmont could handle 120,000 fans. At Saratoga they would have to restrict attendance.
