always.

people want to hate on Aqueduct,
but its there from the time the Breeders Cup momentum ends to the time of the Kerby Derby trail ends.
the months and dates are not glamarous, but they are important.

i'll take Aqueduct(inner or outer) over just about any track in the country.

YES, YES, YES!!!

I <3 you 'pent..

I hate Belmont. Hate it. Don't get me wrong, it's beautiful and scenic and all that, but it feels more like a museum than a racetrack, and it's impossible to get to. Plus I almost always get my ass kicked on their races.

Aqueduct though.. Aqueduct is my home away from home, and although it may not be as aesthetically pleasing as Belmont, it's got a much more welcoming feel on the inside and it actually feels like a racetrack!

I can't stand the inner track meet, and almost never play it, but I'd rather spend a day at AQU than at BEL almost anytime.

interesting you say that.
I know Gander always prefers Aqueduct also, but I think he actually likes Inner track more.

Ive never been to any New York area tracks, so I can not comment on the visual appeal of either.
but I know this, I will take an nyra track over anything else anytime of the year.
