Tuesdays are depressing

[JJP]

Tuesdays are, without question, the worst day of the week.

Has Sar or Dmr ever run on Tuesday? Other than this past July 4th, does Arlington, Churchill or Monmouth ever run on a Tuesday? Does the NFL have "Tuesday Night football?

At work, I'm refreshed from the weekend and too busy to realize the next weekend is far away. By Tuesday, reality sets in. Mondays are much better than Tuesdays.

Thank God this Tuesday is almost over.

Long ago (in a galaxy far,far away?), there were no TB races on Sundays in this country. None. Wasn't until the late 1970s that the laws against wagering on races on Sundays were repealed or made moot by non-enforcement. But instead of asking for more days to race on from the racing commission, tracks simply killed their Tuesday cards so that they could run on Sundays. (Most tracks didn't run on Mondays except holidays; track workers need SOME day off to go shopping. Oh, yes; many localities, like Lexington, had Sunday closing laws, too. It DOES sound like a far away galaxy.)

So the answer to your question is YES, these tracks ran on Tuesdays in the days they couldn't run on the more lucrative Sundays.
