The new show on HRTV, The Horizon, will be a great resource for 2yos at Saratoga and other tracks.

bias is more a differing opinion than fact, is it not ? you can look at all the data you want, there are other factors involved.

Good question, why not send him an email ? I try to avoid turf sprints myself.

Me too. I will bet a turf route of any class, anywhere. But 5f-6f, I generally pass.

Hi - May I ask, do you subscribe online or get it on TV in a package ? Is it worth it ? I can only get it online .

No.. Sorry Larry. Wrestled with the decision all winter but just can't justify the time and expense involved. I didn't feel I could attend to both the show and BBQ ably.
