Venue for this weekend

[Indian Hemp]

A tough choice between OP and GP....weather is good for both....

Let's start with race 4 at GP.

[cal828]

Would you consider adding on the Arkansas Derby and making it 12 races?

[Indian Hemp]

I'll leave that up to the scorekeepers to approve.

[Real Quiet]

I'm up for adding the Arkansas Derby.

[cal828]

Thanks RQ and you too IH, if you decide to add it. It may be the Baffert show, but it is a prep for the KD so I think deserves our attention. With that said, I am a shameless promoter of my hometown track. . And with that said, I don't think that gives me any special advantage. The track usually gives me as much of a beat down as anybody else.

I Suggested Adding Arkansas Derby Originally
But Did Not Think The Idea Would Be Acceptd

Delighted The Suggestion Was Appreciated

[Indian Hemp]

And I would have suggested Dubai.

Where this takes the ROI is the ?

I've always been an advocate of all stakes....but....let's just focus on the now 12 race card with the Buffy Show added.

IH, I'll be glad to post the threads, but want to make sure I understand your intent. Do you mean your original call of GP Races 4 through 14 to which we now add Race 12 from Oaklawn, the Arkansas Derby?

Sorry for my being dense.

[RUFFIAN]

IH

PLEASE CLARIFY EXACTLY WHICH 12 .

WHEN I ADDED THE G P STAKES 6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-14 PLUS
OAKLAWN 9-10-11-12
I GET 13
What am I missing

[Indian Hemp]

My reply is that it would be the GP card starting with race 4 and adding the ARK Derby.

That's my decision based on a ROI perspective that has to include rolling exotics.

[JolyB]

Got it. Thank you and sorry for any confusion. None of us wanted to step on your prerogative.

[Indian Hemp]

Not perceived as such.

After I win the Points this weekend we can discuss a SA-Aqu-Kee stakes card.
