There is a straight MSW in the Condition Book as well as the $60,000/$50,000 MDN CLM race listed as a substitute race. The $35,000 MDN CLM is an 'Extra Race' on the Overnights... The 'Extra Race' is there because it wasn't used for the Thursday card. It will all depend on how many they get for which race... That's how racing offices massage various races in the Condition Book and on the Overnights and mold them into raceday cards.

I hope this picture comes out. It was taken at TOGA soon after he first arrived. I call it "the horse of many colors". I told Paul that he looked like a graduate from clown college. Paul said he wanted to be sure I could pick him out as he traveled around the Oklahoma Track that day.

I first visited him during a torential rain storm. I had to jump into a patch of deep mud to avoid a skittish horse (and then walk around Saratoga for the rest of the day in my muddy, damp shoes). I think Dave Blaha (Heels1989) took some pictures.I snuck back for a visit after the races on my last day there. Lloydobler (Harold) was always friendly and playful. |

Here's another pic of LD - probably my favorite.
I am so concerned about all those people and horses that have to function in this exceptionally cold weather. It's single digits here in SE Virginia. I can only imagine how bad it is at the Big A. Do well, LD. Come home safe and sound. ![]()

Thanks, Heels. Great pictures. LD is definitely a personality kid. We were there on the 29th, as well... probably just missed each other.

if they don't fill one of the races they are already entered in one they do and if they use 2 of the races, scratch out of 1 of them. Do you have to pay for every used race you enter?
