Favorite Opening Day?
I thought this would be a fun topic...what is your favorite opening day(weekend)?
Saratoga for me! :) |
The only people who don't say Saratoga will be the ones who haven't been there.

"Opening Game" at Cincinnati, when it was always the first baseball game of any season, used to be really special. But MLB screwed it up.
|
Oaklawn Baby, Can't beat those 50 cent corned beef samies...:eek:
|
Belmont Spring Meet. After 6 months at the Big A, the weather is getting nice and the derby is usually a week away.

Opening day on the inner track because I realize the single best handicapper in the world is about to make me money..
Worst opening day....Saratoga because the shadows get longer and the races get shorter |
Santa Anita, day after christmas,
Grade one race on opening day! |
Hands down this coming Saturday. Opening day at Tampa will always be heads and shoulders above everything else to me, and yes I have been to opening day at Saratoga. I know the quality of horses isn't the greatest and the jockey colony is less than stellar, but the place is simply magical for me and has been for quite a few years now.
What can I say, I'm loyal to a fault. |
Keeneland Spring :{>:
|
It was not opening day
I will never forget seeing Saratoga this past August for the first time |
Del Mar!! Nothing like gazing at cougars.....and race horses.
|
santa anita, emerald downs and Portland Meadows
|
The Keeneland fall opening weekend. The weather is usually nice compared to the spring meet. All of the graded breeders cup prep races are run opening weekend.

Never apologize for a true and honest loyal love of one's heart Kev. The place is Churchill Downs on the first Saturday in May to you even it's the second Saturday in December. Smell a rose, kiss the baby and enjoy the day for all it offers...... |
