Make sure you don't work too quickly before you ship.

Technically...Arapahoe Racetrack is East of the Rockies, perhaps they could get in the running for a BC. It is real dirt.

Yes I have had tons of horses that needed to be raced in CA. We were going to send Kickin n Screamin until I learned that she has a fear of earthquakes.

I knew you agreed with me, they don't feel the need to ship as well.

I agree the back-to-back thing isn't great but they at least gave a reason why no NY. Given the alternatives, CD is far and away the best option. If we had assurance of Jersey racing next year I'd give another shot to Monmouth. However, part of the problem is them waiting so long to get the venue announced.

If they had horses like mine I would agree.

But thinking that they are going to win horse of the year with the same campaign is foolish.

I would love to see the BC abolished. They recently reorganized and let go many long-time staffers. I guess those were the people who were thought to have done enough?
