Do you have to wager alot though? I don't play every weekend and will be spending all of the summer in Saratoga so didn't know if it would be worth it.

like $300 a month, I have so many months added up mine won't expire until I die


Stonegossard, even with it on there, and them supposedly being the offical wagering platform of the Kentucky Derby, trust me, with them not being on the schedule, there is cause for concern. Same situation happened about two years ago with Gulfstream/Santa Anita/ Magna tracks

I hear ya. I thought having them on their list meant CD was on their schedule. It would be absolutely insane for them not to take CD. I dont bet through youbet anymore...but would be shocked if they didnt take CD.

I would be to, but it wouldn't surprise me. I am guessing negiotations are going on now and will get taken care of by opening day (11 day I think) BUT that is also what was going on with Philly Park (finally back after a 3 year hiatus) and Magna

I personally have a couple different sites, but just wanted others to know about it being a possibility

I am anxiously waiting for Derby week to watch TVG and see them try not to talk about the derby. Will be hysterical watching blinkers off the day before the derby and have them capping the feature from Sunland. If they dont merge with HRTV by the end of the year, they will most likely not be around in 2008. They won't be missed.

I sent along an e-mail to Youbet. No response yet.

BUT - another red flag.

When you go to Andy's "Beat the Pro" page, you can click on a Road to Derby Schedule.

Preakness listed.
Belmont listed.
No Kentucky Derby listed.

Yikes. Nothing from CD listed. Not looking good...

This is even MORE interesting now, great find......I sent an email yesterday and no response, it usually takes about 2 weeks for them to respond to emails.....

Merge city, I wouldn't be surprised to see HRTV to buy them, or a place like Keeneland to tell him, KNOCK IT OFF and starting playing nice

I am hoping that HRTV buys em. Then fires most of their on air cast. The only one worth anything on there is Frank Lyons....maybe Simon Bray. While listening to Todd Schrupp yesterday from Keeneland I wanted to put an axe through my tv.
