Couldn't agree more...breaks slow, rushes up, attempts to float half the field wide in the clubhouse turns, 'rides shotgun' for more than a mile and conveniently slides over in front of Tenfold coming out of the far turn...whatever...

Was great seeing Frank D. and meeting Fairmont and Belmont3... terrific card and weather... Grandstand was absolutely packed (drunks appeared a bit early, way before the 7th)... Clubhouse was busy but not crazy.
One shout out to the Jeff from the Thoroughly/NYRA team and Donny from NYRABets...the amenities wete greatwere great!

Still too early...computer models that were aligned two days ago are now all over the place...it should be wet but it's the amounts and timing that are uncertain...At this point, IMO, nothing is remotely certain and won't be until Friday

Rez:
Couldn't agree more...will have untold effects on everything sports related...IMO it will NOT have any immediate impact on anyone who wagers anything of significance with off-shore accounts...BUT...in a year...the guy who downloads the phone app and wants to wager $200-$300 on a half time total or live wagering??? HUGE! Hundreds of billions at stake in wagering alone, not to menti

From what I'm hearing they are waiting for the snow to stop and (hopefully) the sun warming up to melt the snow on the turf course...at best the early turf comes off but the stake stays on...

Follow up...in a word...NASTY... tornado watch today/tomorrow... Saturday...snow beginning 2:00 am thru mid morning... accumulations will vary but at least 2-5 inches on colder surfaces (ex. grass turf courses!)...
My guess at this point...at best muddy/off the turf...If the GFS model can be believed, they will cancel

Good to see you back...the "Sinatra Pattern"...love it...plus in this instance there might actually be a case for it!
