Try showing up BEFORE the race rather than AFTER when some horse happens to trounce a field. Additionally, trying getting your facts straight. Clearly, you don't bet; this is just FUN for you.

I'll pass in the PM offer.

The Woodbine turf course is really 2 turf courses blended into 1, the old part which doesn't drain as well is part of the back stretch run, the new part which drains better is part of the turn and stretch. Really when the turf is listed as soft/good/firm, one has to wonder which part of the course is being measured. I always thought given that the drainage is not consistent for the entire turf course, information is quite misleading.
