Default Aqueduct Carryover today/current events

Ok the BC is behind us and its time to move on to other things.
Winter is heading our way but there are still many things to look forward to in this game in the upcoming months.
CD and Aqueduct have huge weekends coming at Thanksgiving, Calder always has a great late November/December meet with NY and KY horseman arriving in Florida with their strings, Hollywood has a fantastic turf festival week still to come Fair Grounds will be reopening on Thanksgiving(an incredible betting meet that was missed by many, myself included, last year), and Gulf and SA will be opening up with meets before you know it.
The game doesn't end after the BC, and perhaps we can have more harmony as a board now that the pissing matches about who wil beat who in the BC are over.
Anybody have any thoughts on the Aqueduct carryover today?

Horrible. It poured all night and all morning- it will be very sloppy (obviously off the turf as well.) Expect a lot of scratches.

I know the feeling. Started handicapping the P6 yesterday afternoon, realized it will be off, and said screw it.

I casually glanced at the card and didn't hit it hard figuring on a deluge. But under today's scenario, the 5th should be a See-Ack-Ahh!! moment... Wood Winner (#3/30-1 ML) figures tough with it coming off the lawn...

Ugh, that place. It looks like pro wrestling to me. 6 horses with speed in a race and magically one of them sends and the other 5 grab. No thanks.

I love Tampa Bay. You can make some money at that track. I like it because it is a challenge to handicap.

Kinda like a guy I know in Kentucky named Sam. Funniest guy alive and a friend of Lans. I've stayed there in the past with he and his wife. Guy loves to drink Vodka like water, plastic jug type. One time I was leaving and wanted to give him a gift so I got him a good bottle of vodka. He wasn't happy, he said he LOVED the cheap stuff!!!!!!

Here you go boys and girls. Sloppy and off the turf as reported by our NYC friends.
Good luck to anyone taking a crack at the pik-6 today.
