This Place Is Dead!!

[oriolegirl]

I’m very disappointed! I haven’t been as frequent a poster as in years past, but I was looking forward to the Breeders Cup. This place is dead! What happened to all the friendly banter?? First of all, pinning those posts to the top is a horrible idea because it doesn’t allow the newer posts to be seen. Ditch that idea!
Come on. Spiderjohn, Bev, Ozzy, spanky, elk, ten furlongs, etc. (sorry if I left you out, but you old timers know I’m talking to you). Let’s get some conversation going!!!!
I posted my Friday picks and will post Saturdays today or tomorrow. In the meantime I’m starting a thread on live longshots for Friday.

Tell'em Steve!

There's a good handful excellent players
I'd love to hear from about Breeders Cup.
We're missing a few good voices, that's for sure.

I had pinned the turf race threads to the top while I worked on them during the week, and they'd be easy to find. I just removed the 'stickies', so they are back in the wild. New posts will always appear after the 'stuck' threads. Not too hard to find. 

I think things will pick up (I hope) now that we're a day out from the Friday card, and people should have PPs with post positions by now. I agree with you Steve, I think we all benefit from hearing everyone's opinions, especially longshots with a shot. I know I always find a couple of nuggets from the group. Thanks for putting up your threads. I'm waiting for you to talk me into Pleasant Passage, knowing how much of a Shug fan you are  .

Yes I'm on Shug's Pleasant Passage! I've been on her since day 1 and I'm not bailing out now. Shug doesn't send lightly raced horses to the Breeders Cup unless they're well meant. She has supposedly looked spectacular in the morning. Her workouts are top notch and with Irad up, it's full steam ahead.

Nice hearing from you spider!

I commented on every race thread…. Thought I was posting too much in fact…. Honestly, I haven’t made it out a single day to the track so my opinions solely based on paper and not on my eyes. I hate to admit but I’ve turned a bit anti-Keeneland and think that is impacting my excitement for this year’s running. Spent a lot of time today trying to catch up so maybe that will change. Certainly not boycotting the day as too much potential to be rewarded for being correct!
