Default Spa vs Delmar

I never got excited by Delmar. I like thier baby 2 year and 3 year races, but I will never rush to the track to bet Races 1 through 5 at Delmar. Its always seems its a 6 horse field, $20,000 claiming race with a pounded 6/5 shot. Oh wait a minute that's Hollywood Park. Look at the Spa, you have 51 stakes races in 36 days. The first saturday you have the Vanderbuilt/Go for Wand/Diana & Whitney. Then Sunday, its ends with the Jim Dandy. Its also embrassing to compare the Spa's solid/solid Allowance races, 3 year old dirt races and so competitive 2 year old Turf baby races. Obviously too each his own, but I'm not throwing away green paper on cheap claiming races, when I can bet 8 to 10 horse fields, with great wide open betting boards, with the best quality horses.
