What does watching the race have to do with inquiring if the kid has a previous background in racing?

Delta has a history of running rich stakes. In the 1980s, the gross purse for the restricted Jean Lafitte Futurity was often over $350,000, with the race usually split into two divisions. Some decent horses would come out of that race and run well in the WHAS Stakes on the Derby undercard.

I went to the Jackpot last year for the first time and had a blast. It was a lot of fun. This year, I'm staying home... but like UH OH BANGO to sit the trip behind some speed.

With 2-year-old races, it's always going to be hit/miss. I'm all about small racetracks making moves and taking risks. I hope they have a successful night!

Rooting for Jonesboro, as always, in the Mile...

Yeah, I was just going to post that. At the least it should be rainy.
