Haven't played any tracks other than Los Alamitos quarters in quite awhile, thinking about downloading PPs for Churchill today. Have been traveling and busy during Saratoga meet and have missed almost all of it so far.

Coming back strong after the handicapping layoff... good luck, 'shoes!
The Arlington Million @ Churchill Downs... sure does seems strange.

HRN quotes.
“It’s just not very hearty,” one trainer said this week. “After they run those two races on Saturday, it’s going to be a mess.”
One seasoned jockey who knows Churchill inside out punctuated a conversation this week with a grimacing eyeroll when asked about the grass, saying, “This is all about greed. I’m worried. I’m just hoping something bad doesn’t happen.

Penny breakage in KY as of July 15th. And we thought Churchill was just nickel and diming us...

I hope that the tellers don't have to deal with lots and lots of pennies. With the prevalence of vouchers and wagering machines, I suppose it's not too much of an issue.

Every darned race... pennies... pennies... pennies.
Pari-Mutuel Tellers cracking penny rolls for payouts. Not to mention the freakin' mess at the end of the day. It would make "cents" to use that money for backstretch workers and families. Penny payouts... that's just ridiculous.

Hope you're right Dell. I kinda like him too, using with Santin.

I imagine Paseana was all over that German bred. Badactor caught that winner because of you Margie!
Wherever you are... thank you always my friend!

I can't remember seeing as much kickback on a turf course as was visible during the Beverly D. at Churchill today. I'm glad that they only have two turf races on today's card. From my narrow perspective, that's two too many.

By Summer's end they paint the turf course green at Del Mar. Lots of kickback out here in the West.
