Fair Hill is in MD. Spa hurdling is a tradition going back a century. There will be 2 sanctioned jump races on open house day. No betting though.

Sorry, meant FAR Hill.

I'm aware of the tradition, and it's interesting in the right situation, but when the turf gets hard like it does sometimes up there it seems ripe for bad injuries.

Not a big fan either. In fact, I believe it was two or three years ago they began the whole meet with a jumper race and it turned out to be a lot of carnage in that race.

Years back all you usually needed to know about the jump races was the saddle cloth number for the J Sheppard entry...

The key word here is...carnage

as they say, box the two longest shots in the jumps. they are impossible to handicap.
