There was an old man at the OTB I used to go to in Pennsylvania that would always walk around and ask who he should put $100 to place on. We were usually nice and not screw him over with a bad bet, but we definately could have....

I used to see it every morning at the local OTB i used to visit. 10Am every morning even worse on weekends. 70+ year old retired union guys mostly all old time Italian's was funny to watch. But they sure can tell some good old horse racing stories.

Frankly i makes me wonder what is going to happen to this sport in 10 years when so many of them are no longer with us.

I may try and make it for opening weekend this year. Shoot me a PM and let me know if and when you plan on heading up there. No VA Derby this year for me...its just a little too close to the opening of Toga.
