I took a friend to Turfway earlier this year. He loves to play Turfway and does quite well, so he really wanted to see the track.

To go even further, he said Turfway was bologna, and Ellis Park was a Porterhouse. Needless to say, he wasn't impressed.

Not to get off subject, but would it really be worth making a trip from western Kentucky to check out River Downs? From some of the posts in this thread, I know it won't be a Porterhouse, but I'm not driving that far for bologna, either.

If you do make the trip come upstairs and watch a race from the booth anytime.
