Giddyeup.

Hang at Austin's Ale House on Thurs. Play some Saratoga and KNS. Life is good.

i'm considering a trip up for the race. we'll see.

Will there be any TVs showing AP in the backyard at the SPA on Thursday?

At least one I can think of...:o

i guess you're not going to make it to ARL?

we can't shake these Calabrese horses can we?

-bt-

On the 2nd day of Saratoga's Opening Week? No...

lol yeah, i figured as much!!

I have no idea why the 1 is at 5-2. That horse has been the most overrated horse at AP the last couple years. M/L's always 10X lower than it should be and it almost never wins.

Horse I'd say you'll have to watch out for is the 4, not the 3.

Not in DT yet (hope to be someday), but think I can clear out Thurs to go over and meet up with anyone going.

could anyone in the area give me an idea on where to get a hotel, or more importantly, what areas to avoid? internet searches aren't always a great bet!

What's your budget and we'll find you a place easily

i was looking at the baymont inn and suites in hoffman estates illinois--on barrington road. know anything about it?

we have a trip rewards thing that we go thru online when we reserve to earn points...

as for budget..mid price i guess. just a quick in and out with me and the kids...

I'll be there - looking forward to another DT get together. Safe travels to all

Michelle

The "DT Chucks" made thier debut for KNS victory and will be "on" for Thursday's race in the backyard @ the Bar-B-Que.

i'll be sure to have my camera!

that's not a bad choice. its not far from where I work actually.
i think the hotel is rather new and you are right off I90 and there are restaurants all around. there is no problem with any neighborhood around here. you would be no more than 15 minutes from the track.

I look forward to the photos....:)

Have a save trip Michelle.

made reservations.

you guys wish me luck--i'm going to have three/four teens in the car with me. ought to be an interesting 72 hours!! 24 of it or so spent in the car.....
i must be crazy!

hope to meet many of you there!

Who are you pitching the Movie Deal to ? :D

I don't have the PPs right in front of me, but I looked at that race with specific regard to the ML when it drew on Saturday. Doesn't the horse usually take a decent bit of money, and still look logical on paper, all things considered?

I would be surprised if anyone got better than 4-1, maybe 9-2, and I assume most of the off odds will be slightly higher than the ML, as I find it hard to believe the Calabrese actually goes off at 9-5.

I was thinking along the same lines. I don't have the PP's in front of me yet either, just going from memory. Fav goes off about 3-1 was my first thought and if my memory's right (which it is 99% of the time), I think that the 4 is the horse to beat, not the FCC one. That #1 horse always takes some $$ (think part due to the low ML). I never liked that horse when first came here from CA and it's proved me right almost everytime it ran, overrated.
If the 'toga bunch bets on KNS, she may even be the post time fav.

See you Thurs!

John

I plan on being there.

work is pressing hard right now

It's hilarious that her races keep falling on days I have off one way or another. Alternate holiday got me out there on July 3, and I have minor dental surgery Thursday morning so I took the day off and barring any unforseen massive pain in my mouth, will be out there that afternoon.

For the first time in all of DeeTee's races at AP....I'll be there.

YES!

i have some hydrocodone around here somewhere....

cancel the dentist!! see you thursday i hope.

Oh don't worry, they'll give me pills. I'll be out there cuz I'll want to get some work done before the race anyway.

It'll just mean no beer for me if I'm in pain and eating pills.

Or on that note, maybe all the better reason to have a beer :)

I'll be out one way or another though.

maybe they'll be plenty of us around to keep an eye on you at the track.

hell, i drank the other day ( a few) with a muscle relaxant. no permanent damage. but man i slept GREAT that night! :D

it'll still be there when you get back. hope to see ya thursday!

excellent idea!

Danzig - I look forward to meeting you at last! Have a safe trip

thanks! i'm looking forward to meeting you and hopefully a bunch of others. wonder if dell and satan's twin will be there.

Deb...I love ya babe...so Im telling you...stay as far away from those two guys as possible.

you could do worse...:zz:

I actually think the #5 (Hayley Go Blue) might be a good value play here. She hasn't done much in recent starts, but 8f on the poly is where she has done her best work in the past. She might be one to include in exotics (underneath KNS obviously).

The #1 could be tough, and might wire the field as she did in a similarly paceless race last year at AP. Unfortunately for KNS, there isn't much speed at all, and the #1 might just get loose on a soft pace.

Scav and GPK?

Danzig loves her some GPK:cool: :{>:

my favorite golfer.

it is 4:17 cst. getting ready to get on the road.
