Good Luck with her, but I would think that the pace will be much hotter then the absolute crawl that race was.


For the record, I enjoy and look forward to all the races. It's my favorite day/days of the year.

Everything about Awesome Belle screams "last time was the time."

I never understood that saying. Is that like "if you weren't there for the wedding, don't go for the funeral?"

Anyway, sorry you are distressed by the dirt races.

They may want to work on getting her to switch leads

And I'm looking forward to all the races on Friday...as they are the only ones I will get a chance to watch.

I thought the return to dirt would make this one better but I'm really not feeling the excitement at all. The only race that holds any intrigue for me is the Classic because of Uncle Mo and Havre de Grace. There are a couple of other horses that I am interested in seeing here and there but that's the only race.

Goldikova in the mile. I was looking forward to the Distaff until It lost Blind Luck and Zazu.

While none of the races may be 'spine tingling' there usually are several good wagering opportunities and large pools which make for decent payoffs. I'm looking forward to the Turf and Classic on Saturday. I love any event which has Grey Goose as a sponsor!!!!
