Sold, Give Me Turf Racing Or Give Me

[2MinsToPost]

Nothing else man when it is said and done. Time and again I watch these beautiful animals perform and am amazed. After watching the 5th at Gulf today it once again sold me that this is simply put some of the best bang for your buck.

See the replay of the 5th today at Gulf if ya haven't. GREAT RACE in my humble opinion.

I had win money on the 2 and don't feel bad about that losing ticket cause this was just full blown great bang for my buck.

agree with you, i did not bet the race, i was going to bet the #5 mantle but i thought he was way overbet did watch it and it was a great race.

same hear would love to see more turf races. a couple years ago i believe it was colonial downs did an all turf card. not saying the hold card needs to be turf. but more then just a couple.

they should have at least half the races on any given card on turf, AT LEAST HALF

Almost all of Colonial's races are on turf during the entire meet. They have very few dirt races. Turf racing is what they card everyday.

I had to go to their site and look. It starts June 15 and runs to August 7th.

I've cashed some nice tickets there with Graham Motion, Billy Mott, and Pletcher's, English Channel.

I hope you bet a ton on English Channel...as he was odds on in the Colonial Turf Cup and I believe he was even money in the Va Derby

Colonial is my favorite meet, hands down. I consider it my home track and love the fact they routinely card 6-7 turf races a day. Has the best turf course in the country....

if i've got time i'm definitely taking a road trip to colonial this summer.
