That is actually at Trackside.

They USED to chill at the 2nd floor at Fatman's but the weather has been so nice that they are always outside now.....

It's great all you guys and girls are coming in..Don't forget that Chuck is running another horse Thursday. We're due after the Churchill screw job on Ben. So..if you aren't blowing out of town after Sumwon goes off at 1-5, stick around and cheer home the PolyHorse Parther First time Maiden Filly Starter....Bob's Bean

One thought concerning hotels...The Sheaton is so damn convenient, you should see how many rooms you need and call them and make an offer. I guarantee that you can get a great deal on 6 or 7 rooms in the middle of the week. If you want to give me the number of rooms, I have some pull with Sheraton because I travel a lot and would be glad to make the call for you guys.

OK..I'm done now...

it might not be a bad idea given the proximity to the track. Could eat drink talk and play horses!

would need to make reservations though.

This sounds like it would work.

Yes, I'm really looking forward to the Scav Experience Live! .... :p

based on proximity, the one on winnetka is very close to the track, Like one mile, just over the expressway.
