Nice choice. No question that Parx has the best racing this weekend. Have you considered whether the full 13 race card might be a bit more than we need?

I intended the above to be a serious question.

In recent years, many tracks have added more and more races to their cards on big race days, probably driving patrons to the ATM's several times during the day. We have generally tried to avoid that trend by deleting some races from our contest program either at the beginning or the end of the card, especially when they don't have any particular significance in and of themselves.

This has primarily been to shield our scorers from the additional burden of lots of extra races. Their tasks are time consuming enough as it is. For those contestants who take the time to find and download pp's and then handicap each of the contest races, the additional time commitment also becomes burdensome.

The points winner does have the privilege and responsibility of selecting the following week's venue, so you are entirely within your bounds to pick your lucky number of races if you choose. I only hope that this will not become the norm.

In response to all your comments:

I would not wish to inflict as you say: ''Additional Burden'' on my fellow players

Therefore I shall set aside my own PERSONAL Preferences ~

We can begin the day with RACE 4

That should make everyone happy

Besides, My Biggest KITTEN JOY was finally landing at #1 in Standings!
That may not last long but for now, the Rocky Mountain High is Higher!
