Default 03.10.2018 Venue

I'd like to play Santa Anita. However, I'd like to drop their 11th race MSW and play the 11th at Tampa Bay, the TB Derby.

Thank you.

Any chance of 3 to 10 at Santa Anita with the Tampa Bay Derby and Gotham Stakes added? That's 3 maiden races eliminated from SA and a 4 PM Eastern post time to give players a little more time.

I'm not keen on the Gothom. I don't like that it's only a mile as I feel these colts should be consistent and going further now. Why is Free Drop Billy being sent there, dropping in distance and skipped the FOY and tomorrow's TB Derby?

If everyone wants the Gothom we can follow the plan you suggest Pete. My preference is to play as listed above which would be a start time of 3pm Eastern.

Thank you.

Works for me. Whatever you decide is what we will play.

I know I don't have any part in the decision
Which is totally up to PLENILUNE

But if I had a Tiny Purrrrrr
I would prefer the original idea of Santa Anita and the Tampa Bay Derby ONLY

@$*%!)*& Saturday's weather for Arcadia...90% chance of rain. "Rain showers in the morning will evolve into a more steady rain in the afternoon. High 63F. Winds light and variable. Chance of rain 90%. Rainfall near a quarter of an inch."

The field sizes looked so good. Now, how many are going to scratch and the turf races, will they remain on turf? This is so aggravating!

Shall we stay with SA? Or move to Tampa Bay and start with a later race (R4 at 1:42 Eastern), maybe include the SA R6 San Felipe? That would be a 10 race card. We could throw in the Gothom for 11.

Calgon, take me away!
