not sure about opening day. weather down here is sucky.

56 degrees and a little rain is not sucky for the middle of January.

Looks like the weekend will be real nice. Can't wait.

is that what it will be? then good. i just know that they were calling for rain in my neck of arkansas, wasn't sure how the track would be after the frigid weather...

hope it's a great opening day. would love to go, but duty calls.

Weather Channel says temp will be 57, but there will be a 90% chance of rain. We've already had quite a bit of rain so I think it's safe to say Oaklawn is going to be a bit soggy.

Was surprised to see Casse with a string of horses at Oaklawn, and he brought Da Silva down to ride for him. Apparently Stealcase is just a maybe for Sat.

Josie Carroll has 10 horses stabled at Oaklawn also.

Paul Holthus won the last race yesterday. I'm assuming Bob's dad is no longer alive, so is this his son?

Chuck?

anyone?
