We'd love for you to participate but only when you're ready. :)

well I guess that I will be one of the first to introduce myself....
My name is Brandan and I am 19...
My favorite tracks to bet on are Woodbine, Turfway, Colonial Downs
I DO NOT bet Calder
I was at Saratoga last year for the first time and love it
I got hooked on racing because of my father
One of my biggest hits was Pleasant Home last year in the Breeders Cup

My Dad brought me to racing as well.

Colonial Downs - you will have a new friend in T3B, whose real name is GPK. We need to wiggle Arlington into that fray. I also nailed Pleasant Home, that was a great day in the Bellagio Sportsbook.

Welcome

My father thinks gambling is stupid... yet he invests in the stock market :p

I got into the races when I was looking for something to do one weekend and saw that Bay Meadows was open... asked a friend to go and I've been addicted ever since. I never would have imagined when I started that I'd understand what all the small numbers and letters in the Form mean, or that I'd have several on-line accounts and watch TVG religiously... I never knew it could be this good! :D

maybe it's an age thing -- i'm 23 and i've bet calder a few times, then realized i will never bet it again :)

that's funny MY father thinks horses are stupid...he grew up on a cattle ranch and the first thing he did when he turned 18 was enlist in the army to get away from the farm....he's probably not entirely pleased that his daughter went back.;)

Stick with me kid, we will go places.

T3B:cool:

Thanks for the warm welcome. Been reading this forum for a while and enjoy the comments.

Happy New Year to everyone!

Hey Theatrical!, glad to see you signed on here.

Welcome!

Welcome everyone.

And my father got me into the sport as well. Sometimes that man could drive a Saint to drink, but I am thankful for him allowing my passion to grow.

Hi, I'm Heather. I've followed this board for awhile now, but don't really bet, so mostly I just lurk. Thanks for the warm welcome and Happy New Years.

Thanks so much! How are you doing?

Welcome to all of the new members! :)

Wooh Hooh another lady. That male female cap is getting closer its only like 690-10 now:) seriously welcome all, this is a great place to meet people and learn a great deal. Horns, stay away from gpk/t3b only place he will lead you to is a bar, well or bw3's, or a nice looking grass horse....

So what your saying is i want to buy you a nice bottle of vodka or a six pack your not going to drink it... is that what your saying.
