When I'm at Santa Anita, the Kopan Ramen shops are great. Alhambra was the first and now they've open in Pasadena and elsewhere around LA.

We did get some preference mentions in casually pre-NHC, but will add a full segment next year..

Oh and just to add I discovered that place by luck cause Rao's was closed for Private party on NHC first friday.

The only horse that I really like that you don’t have listed is the #5 Tempers Rising in the Rachel Alexandra. She was able to close despite a relatively slow early pace last time and should see a faster pace today with the additions of the McPeek horses. That may benefit British Idiom as well...but I’ll be including her.

Anyway, thanks and good luck. Hopefully we can bring home some winners.

After reading this thread and seeing all of Gus’s pictures of food I’ll make sure I go on a diet before going to NHC next year!
