Fun In The Sun 343929
A sunny day on Sunday at Keeneland is the greatest place to be. On this day, it was beautiful. Heaven had descended on Lexington for the afternoon. It was military day, and the “Grade One Gamble” contest. I was in a room which they had built in 1984 for Queen Elizabeth. It held around 50 […]
“It Lives” 5y1y5c
That is not the title of a movie that my son would be watching. It is a way of wagering that has turned more weekend warriors and second guessers into regulars, who get to come to the track with the wife’s blessing. You have heard me tell tales of parlays and multi-race wagers. This is […]
Plans 4w1r2n
I had the information for Keeneland’s card since Friday. I have begun my typical regiment of handicapping, and will continue into the night. I like to be prepared. The last thing I will do before I make final decisions, is to pull down the card from WinningPonies. It has served me well, and for those […]

Horses are waiting in the wings for D-Day — April 28. That’s when the post-position draw for the 136th Derby is scheduled.

Open Mouth, Insert ?? 581m4p
There I was… I was outside today enjoying a fine cigar. OK, it was average at best… But, the sun was shining, and I was reading some racing magazines, catching some rays. Then comes my old pal, “The Mouth.” His real name is Frank, but everyone calls him The Mouth. He started in on me […]

Disappointed? r1719
Well, don’t be… If you watched the two big races on Saturday, you saw what it takes. The best come to ply their trade, and come to show you how great they can be. Well, it happened again. It does each year, and the game doesn’t let you up. You have to battle through and […]
