Also, it's live racing, so who cares. I put up with Canterbury. The person who tells you racing is bad is just telling you there there's no graded stakes going. Which is probably true, but don't you want a good betting races with a bunch of average claimers anyway? The only thing that might ruin your day at Calder, is it seems like clock-work they get a monsoon everyday between race 1 and 2 lol. So hopefully the rain will hold off while you're there, and have a good time!

OMG DO NOT SEND THE POOR GUY ANYWHERE NEAR HIALEAH

Gulf is nothing to see unless they're running. That said I'll be back a few times this winter. The advantages of having a brother move there. Hialeah and the area can be dangerous but I guess is part of the American experience. LOL
