It really sounded like an awesome time, rain and all. Probably not the best day to try to enjoy and evaluate the facilities. Kind of like Saratoga on giveaway days and Travers week.
I am actually jealous, my derby day included trips to Freehold Raceway (just beautiful this time of year) and trying to wrestle the remote control out of my sons hands as the horses were getting into the gate. For a kid who likes horses he showed bad timing by wanting to put Spongebob on 18 seconds before the race!

funny you should mention Matt Damon. he is town filming "The Informant"
they were doing a "shoot" just a couple blocks from my place. They made snow. It really looks just like snow. It was still around today in some places.

anyway.. I didn't go because I had more important things like Hollywood pick 6 carry over
