Default January 30 Venue . . . thoughts

Looks like the only or best game in town is GP again. A gaggle of 3YO races, (5 to be exact) and all Stakes as well. Will someone emerge out of these early tests to vie for the Derby? Ya Never Know.

Chime in if you care. As soon as the entries are up, I'll post about the races but probably the full card?!

Gulfstream should be the choice, no other track has any decent entries.

I think that is the best choice. The Holy Bull always attracts some quality runners and the undercard has a number of stakes races.

You have probably noticed that Santa Anita has some weather problems. They have cancelled Friday's card and postponed a turf stakes race from Saturday's card all due to predicted heavy rain.

Looks like we're back at Gulfstream Park, races 3-12 to give us a ten race card. Post time for Race 3 is 12:41 ET. I'll put up the Pts and ROI threads tomorrow.

Love to watch the three year olds. Fair Grounds is the best if the Kentucky Derby is going to be run in May.
