The important thing that people must realize is the difference between day racing and night racing. We tossed a 2/5 Pletcher chalk at Prairie Meadows (Above the Wind or something to that nature) because he was already a freak mentally and the lights threw him for a loop. A racing day like this, it is important to see how they come out on the track.....

The Duty Free makes me mad because it makes me think of last year's winner David Junior. I was really excited about his chances in the Classic last year. I had him every which way because I thought he was a great value. Pick 3s that were live, keyed in exotics, straight w/p bets, everyting.
He didn't run a step.

6 Mystical 33/1


The odds from our traveling poster (brockguy) from some book. They got him as a 3rd choice in what looks like a tossup race from these numbers. How is this? They think this many US dollars come in, or they really think Lava man has a chance. The I like is not mine.
****, I am betting Mystical....

I guess I am way off

That's a good point. And I think the horse you're thinking of is Circle the World.

They really should have started him here in the JCGC or something.

Yes, was close with starting letters or whatever

We need G'Town to win it all, bet them back in July at 20/1, my only future wager that is available

It was Bishop Court Hill who drew the rail. Coach Jimi Lee won.

That is if I remember right which is no sure thing.

Anyone know if they are going to have the fireworks show halfway through the race card again this year?. That was really bizarre last year and Im sure upset more than a few horses!
