So which day is the Sham supposed to be?

Anyways, despite the course specialists (Mr. Gruff was particularly potent last season), I wonder if Sangaree, a half brother to Congaree out of the fleet-footed Mari's Sheba, has a shot to make a late burst cutting back in that down-the-hill race.

They carded it on Sunday as a "10th" race in case the card gets cancelled on Saturday.. (it's supposed to rain Friday night/Sat morning)

He's mistaken (he's getting old.) Speightstown ran huge to beat Kela in the 2004 B.C. Sprint. I'm sure that hurt. He may have tried a little too hard to forget about it.
