And JB's reply to your post:

"I don't envy this week's winner in having to choose a venue for next week. Since Churchill will be open, I suppose that we can fall back upon the cliché of "let's get a race over the track?"

No, I've never been to the races at Charles Town. Any time I get to that neighborhood, some magnetic force seems to draw me to the amazing town of Harper's Ferry, just a few miles up the road at the confluence of the Shenandoah and Potomac Rivers"

You can't make this stuff up.

For what it's worth, I agree with Ruff's comment.
I know the area pretty well as I was the Proj. Mgr. for a project very nearby. Absolutely a beautiful part of the US and the meeting of the two rivers is quite a sight(site). Since I was there on business, I did not do any wagering but did manage to enjoy several adult beverages . . . just to be social of course!!! And having asked the question about next week, I now have to answer it.
