Colonial Turf Cup/Sat. 6/24
 

Im about 95% there....anyone else going?

Rock Lobster ...

Hop aboard the Mad Scientist's express. This horse will light up the tote board. :p

Umm you take the guy whose 4-42, no thanks on that for me. I always liked guys like Dutrow, Baffert and Pletcher who just win a whole lotta races consistently at the highest level.

I am going on July 15. I know the hottest grass rider in the country is going and he is riding the winner.

I will most likely be out of commission on the 15th, so it looks like the next 3 Saturdays are gonna be the only times I am able to make it out to CD this year. At least I have the Turf Cup and the Handicapping Contest to look forward to.

50-50 I am going down on July 8 for the contest. My friend is definitely going and without inside info he has zero shot. With 10K on the line I probably am going to take a shot if Showing Up puts big money in my pocket on saturday.

Its only $150 entry...

Not worried about the $150, I am worried about what I will lose gambling over the weekend. I am going with the biggest degenerate I know, but he can piss away thousands and I can't. Get a few drinks in me and I am chasing money all day.

I am doing ZERO gambling that day. My only plays will be for the contest only.

Can't make it to Virginia. Wish I could. I hope your friend's horse has a safe trip, though I hope he runs 4th as I'm tossing him. And please, don't drink and gamble.

He doesn't own the horse. Just knows the owners and the connections. Drinking and gambling don't mix, atleast good gambling.

Im there tomorrow. Called Colonial yesterday and the reserved tables are all taken, but they have some tables that are first come, first serve and the bar seats are the same way. Gonna have to get there early and get a seat. Anyone wanna join me, send me a message.

GPK,

Nice to see a fellow Carolina poster. Can't make it this week but July 8th sounds very tempting. Is it too late for the contest? Where do you sign up at the CD web site?

Nice place Kitty Hawk...use to go there when I was at NC State many many moons ago.

Caio,

Hey bro. Would love to have you join me up there on the 8th in the contest. Im sure you can still get in on it. Just go to the website and you can find the link there.

Kitty Hawk is beautiful indeed. I love it here, but I am fixing to move back to VA at the start of July. Sorry about you luck with NC State...I bleed Tarheel Blue.:cool: :cool:

GPK,

When did you go there? Yea, about the Pack, I'm one of thos Damn Yankees and came down here and was told we hate these guys...and REALLY hate these other guys and never really got into the tussle as the best sports team we had while I was there were the NC State cheerleaders who were national champs. Of course my really good friend was the coach which was very nice indeed as she would set me up at times

Nothing wrong with having an in with the cheerleaders:D :D
I dated a girl for a while when she was attending State...yowzer:eek:

I did not attend UNC, just a really big fan for a long time.

Dammit, I would love to join you! :(

Get your ass up here...Stacey aint going. Right now, I am making the trek alone.

Colonial This Weekend
 

Trust me there are always a way to get a seat there provided you are there early.

I am flying in early myself, and hope to get a table at the bar on floor 3.
