A request for Steve from a new member

jacksdad · #1 08-02-2006, 12:39 PM

First of all, hello to everyone. I've been lurking here for a bit but being fairly new to the game was a bit intimidated to get involved. But I figure what the hell, I'll jump in and become better educated.

My request is this: Knowing how busy Steve is up a Saratoga, I'm still hoping that he can somehow take a look at the Monmouth card for Sunday. Maybe a few or the smaller stakes or something like that.

Or if anyone else has opinions, I'd love to hear them.

Thanks

Jacksdad,
Welcome aboard.

As far as Monmouth, I don't bet there much. But I have friends in Red Bank, Middletown, and Long Branch that do so often.

Post the card, and I'll talk to them and let you know what they think.
Also, say which ones you like.

Enjoy!

welcome aboard...I always wanted to be the first to say it.

I have an opinion about the track. I recently took NJ Transit there, which drops you off within walking distance, and that track is very underrated. We had a great time and the racing was very good. I like how some of the reserved picnic tables are trackside.

Let us know.
Enjoy Toga, the weather will break soon. No need to stress the horses in this.

Welcome aboard.

As far as Monmouth...bet anything that Jose Lezcano is getting on for the first time. He moves them up as well as anyone.

Thanks for the welcomes. Yes Monmouth is a very nice track and I'll be in the picnic area on Sunday. Of course I'll be there at 7 am to make sure we all have a table.

As far as posting the card, I don't even have the slightest clue as to how to do that.

Jacksdad,
The entries aren't up yet for Sunday 8/6.
If you go to this site, click on "racing", you'll see which ones are "in".
Then right click, hit copy, and come back here to paste it on this thread.
For sure there are plenty of "experts" on this board. They'll tell you who they like.
Joe Bravo seems to ride well....just my two pennies worth.

Pais,
Not the first time I've been confused.
I'll let you know who I was thinking of.

Pais,
I got confused between you and PSH.
Dang, these brain cramps keep diving me nuts.
Can't wait until I get older...everything that begins with a "p" will become parsley, pony, pepperoni, or polygraph...
What a future!
