Default May 18, Preakness Pimlico Points Picks go here . . .

Preakness Day hip hip ho raaaaay!!! To be consistently inconsistent we will play races 1 -13 thus ending with the Preakness. Points awards are doubled again as well.

Remember, the card is races 1-13 and post you picks NLT 10:30 AM EST. The early bird may or may not get the worm.

Ga'luk to all!!!

GUESS ITS TOO LATE TO BEG + PLEAD FOR A LATER POST TIME!

8:30 AM I'LL STILL BE SNOOOOOZIN IN CAT-DREAMIN-MODE
SO ALL I CAN HOPE IS THAT NONE OF MY ROI PIX ARE SCRATCHED!

WAS HOPING {UNREALISTICALLY OF COURSE} THAT MAYBE
WE MIGHT START WITH A LATER RACE ~ BYPASS MAIDENS

BUT MY 'WISHFUL THINKIN' PROVED TO BE UNSUCCESSFUL

Maybe Another Twist Of Fate Will Be That The Fox Gets The Last Laugh!

Also Cat Curiosity
Why did we play 2 races after the DERBY
BUT.... we don’t play the race after the Preakness?

I thought that Don Guido explained it very clearly - we are being "consistently inconsistent." [Fortunately, he didn't quote Ralph Waldo Emerson on that topic]

Hey Ruff, excuse me but are you ever satisfied? Why are you mentioning race 14, we aren't playing that race. I don't ever see anyone else complaining about length of the card or start time. I'm sorry you happen to live in the Mountain time zone but here's a suggestion. There's no reason you can't make wagers and points picks the day before hand. If there's scratches it's no time to change your picks the next morning. I mean, Roamin does it and he lives in NJ I think.

Sorry for making this public but it's about time you need to hear this openly, since I'm not the only one who thinks your questioning of most everything we do is not to your liking is and has been out of line for some time . . . and you need to give us all a break. Sorry for the third time, but it would be nice if you could just go with the flow. I could go on but then you might think I was getting snarky.

We love you but . . . ???? Good luck and enjoy the day.

Hey Roamin I think we all get along fine. We're a family and sometimes families need to be reminded of things that may be getting out of line. Sure we all have opinions and my opinion was expressed to Ruffian hoping not to RUFF-L her feathers but to make her aware that we've perhaps heard this request too many time.

I revised the post 3 times before I put it up so it would not come across "too RUFF". We're all friends and sometimes friends tell other friends things that may not like. I'm sure she will take it the right way.

Hi Don, TCTP is a class act. I guess being that I am on the East Coast the time does not interfere with the starting time. I can see where that is rough from the later time zone. The last thing I want is to get you riled up. So me personally I stand corrected. Take care my friend. Roamin

Hey Roamin my friend, the only thing that riles me up is ignorance and prejudice which a!ways go hand in hand. Good luck tomorrow.
