Default A big "thanks a lot" to the guys at DRF

I will never understand these guys, no matter what. I'm an old fashioned guy and like to have the paper version of the DRF in front of me. Online is ok to look at two days out before the DRF is available, but printing it out is a pain in the ass and not the same as having the DRF in front of you. I buy todays DRF yesterday and what do I get? I get Philly and Pimlico in there and no Churchill Downs or Hollywood. Gee thats great!!!
I guess they didnt feel it was important enough to put the two tracks that will get the highest handle and most interest other than Belmont. WTF?

i hope your ink cartridge is full and you have plenty of printer paper....

it can be a pain, but here in the boonies, it's easier for me to buy the online card and print it out. no drf for sale anywhere near here. but that's only for one card, i can't imagine printing out multiples...

Zieg its like one full ink cartridge to print out 4 tracks. Its like buying a 20 dollar DRF, gee, what a bargain. I often wonder if the guys at DRF own Lexmark stock.

Looks like I made the right call, was going to print it out late last night. I was about to buy and said, naw I'm just going to take my ass to the store and buy it the old fashioned way. I would have been heated if it didn't have CD in it. Considering that's where I'm going today. Good luck to all today!

I have two computers.On one I download the DRF .The other has the software I use. That way I can read the form as I work the program.
I picked up the POS computer from a pawn shop...CHEAP.
