Last night's cocktail reception was fun though the NHC participants and the associated NTRA staff filled up the Pavilion Ballroom at Red Rock rather quickly. Mike Watchmaker filled in for Steve Crist in welcoming the players on behalf of the DRF. Red Rock Race & Sports Book Director Jason McCormick also offered a free trip to the Kentucky Derby to anyone who breaks Rich Goodall's record score from 2008.
Here are the mandatory races for today, for those of you who'd like to follow along:

The GGF race sucks, all the rest are solid toughies.
Question for you, are they waiving the no-laptop rule? I know how many of the contest circuit people use them.
