So here's my response............................














Stick to betting 3rd rate tracks like Woodbine and quit your constant whining. Change your diaper, get a new bib, buy a few new rattles for yourself..........do whatever needs to be done. Just quit crying already.

I think you need a "time out".
I'm not often in agreement with the fat man, though he is entertaining...but saying Woodbine is a third rate track is patently false. I've taken up playing Woodbine since the spring and it's been a pretty profitable venture. It's easy to dismiss it because it's not Saratoga, Santa Anita or Gulfstream or something, but you'd be surprised. It's no where near the level of true third rate establishments like Penn National, Suffolk, or Mountaineer.

I think the horses that run up their are third rate. Yes they do have some big purses and decent races. But those horses really aren't any good up there. When they come south they get trounced. And usually it's horses from The U.S. that go up there and win the big races.

If The Fatwhiner is implying that racing at WDB is better than Saratoga then he is off his rocker. It's safe to say he is losing his shirt trying to bet NY, so he whines about the races in NY. Most losers do that type of things....blame others for their failure.

I have to watch that race again. From memory, the obvious trip was the DT horse, Graphite Halo (and the other speed). That's a hard race.

They are not third rate...
Do you look at the pp's ? Not just the entries.
I do everyday, the horses are decent.
Third rate is Finger Lakes, Charles Town, and Mountaineer... Not Woodbine.

Those tracks you named are like 9th rate. And yes WDB is better than them.
