Now, considering the turf condition already, when you add the rain that was hitting, I would love the explanation of what they were going to do about the late Pick-4 where three races were about to be taken off the turf.

I'm sorry about your Pick-6, genuinely, it's painful, but understand very clearly that you were about to have those same 48 consos, with no added carryover, hinging on 10 claimer Atouratoura winning. Hard to believe all things considered the cancellation was not in your ( and everyone's ) best interests.
I didn't see how atouratoura could lose. Quite frankly Lukes Flash is a big time hanger, Friedman's horse always spots the field a thousand lengths, etc. WIth his tactical speed, ability to handle a wet track, and Johnny riding I really thought he couldnt lose. I even plotted the ****ing ticket so as to have what I felt were the prime contenders on both dirt and turf in the last two races, using both Buxton and Good going in the last, and going 4 deep in the 8th. I really think that we would have nailed this one.
