I'm jealous too! I really want to make it up there one year.

My friends who live up in the area are probably the most enthusiastic bunch of fans I've ever met.

Sounds like a party every race day.

Looks like a great betting race. Awesome Gem and Gladdding are the ones to beat but are not locks and there are at least 5 others that rate a chance.Should be good value everywhere.

Gladding supposedly didn't ship well and may be a scratch. Will dramatically change the pace scenario.

I tried to force myself to go against Awesome Gem, I went to St Liams Halo but AG has just too much class for this group and I decided not to talk myself out of betting him. Played a tri and spent $32

With Gladding scratched AG is going to be a prohib fav. Looks like Taylor Said is going to take a lot more money now as won't have Gladding to contend with on front end. I am going for 2 price plays. St Liams Halo who will be overlooked because Mario went to TS and has ton of gate speed to get a good position. Just lost in race over track and was winner 1 jump past wire.Other horse not to leave out is Jebrica. Penney has won 5 Miles and has last yr 3 yr old champ peaked for this.
