Don't tease Cannon! I can make it to Tampa!

I will be in Venice Easter week in March and Presidents day week in Feb. Would love to meet some DT'ers and spend a day at Tampa Bay Downs either week or both perhaps. Are any of the Tampa residents golfers? Are either of these courses nice or which is closer to Oldsmar: Hunters Green C.C. or Tampa Palms CC. Might try to get in a morning round before the races. If Sumwon or K&S are running might have to make a third trip. Thanks in advance for any feed back.

I haven't played either course, so I can't help much there.

Shoot me a PM when you get down here and I'll see you out at The Downs.

Thanks Bigs, looking forward to it.

I see Southwest has $69 Flights Long Island (Islip) to Tampa. Interesting...

We've had a trainer or two of ours go to Tampa during the winter. Economically it doesn't appear to make a lot of sense, but I'm not the trainer. I guess the "go there to break even" and "freshen up your horse" and "claim a few" might be the target.

I haven't been there in a few years but it's always been "OK" to me. I don't remember any of the local courses. Good luck and enjoy.

I love Tampa. IMO, the surface is better for the horses than Gulfstream.
