Default AP today

sunny now but we had rain and HUGE THUNDER overnight and expect the lawn to be less than firm. Sunny skies and a high of 80 expected. Not what Block was hoping for but it may not matter for Giant Oak. Hope he does well and at least has a shot at the 500K bonus. Oh and good luck to Taylor Madison, Billy Sr. and company.

I agree. Wonder if Billy Sr will be as ticked that TM's running on grass this time... him before the race 2 back was hilarious.

see you over there, if you're going!

I am not 100% sure if it rained near AP last night or not, I do not see any residual rain from last night on the ground, in spots where there is usually puddles

rained only a little, but not much by me too. no puddles, but can tell the ground was slightly wet.

I just woke up so I have no idea, it wasn't a crunk fest because I slept right through anything that happened.

wish you were here. It's the 8th and I also like Prairie Prize and Return the Jewel as prices. Thank God for .50 tri's. Track today and Freddy Jones Band party tonight makes tomorrow morning very ugly.

Return the Jewel is one I have listed from capping last night as a possible price.. that race is wide open.
Think there are 2 or 3 viable price horses in the last too.
