Don Guido, I don't envy you the choice you need to make. Not a lot of good alternatives, as the racing world awaits the blockbuster card that Belmont will be offering the following Saturday.

One of our goals in choosing venues is to provide a variety for our players, and if ever we had to venture to Penn National, it ought to be for the Penn Mile and the other stakes races on the undercard. That should be much better than the usual bleak bill of fare that Penn National offers.

Penn National usually has evening racing, but for Penn Mile day the first post is at 3:45 PM.

77Yes. A track we don't play much and a number of Pa bred races. Should be more fun than a pool full of hippo going after head of lettuce.

I used to go to the WSH too. Way before the casino days when they had racing Friday and Saturday night and Sunday afternoons.

Unless anyone objects we'll only play up to Race 9, The Penn mile. A 9 race card.

Oh Ruffian, I'm sure there are some cat horses running in 1-9 or greys or others with names that are akin to you. You'll find one or two that will fill your basket with mucho cyber dinero I bet.
