GSB- asking because I don't have a program yet, how tough do the piks look?

Thanks Senator. I'll have a peak, and get to OTB early enough to study, the early pik 4.

I used to go to OTB's in NYC and NYS in the day, now I use ADW's in Florida. You still go to a physical location still to watch and wager, might as well go to the track to see the races live - that's still a hoot ;D?
VGL to U today! tmbz1

I agree, nothing better than being trackside watching live.
Time restraints prevent me from getting to the track a couple times a week, so I make do with an OTB.
Thank you, VGL to you as well, if betting today/tonight.

Team Tritton with a beast of a drive. Great race.

Agreed; and the horse was really good also ;>>)

A little luck in the race never hurts. #3 was a no show and when Ruthless broke there was a nice hole on the rail. Then she got the cover she needed. Her horse is a good horse , but a lot has to do with the way the race plays out especially on that track. In the 1995 Battle I saw a 3k horse beat millionaire Village Jiffy. I've seen some strange outcomes happen over the years on those flying turns.

Imagine betting gas and go Georgie Nap at that price knowing that handsless wonder would be firing big off the gate, hellbent for the top and yes breaking the steed early. Too funny but not unexpected. What happened with Backstreet Shadow????
-
Worst drive of the race was Buter on Covered Bridge, horse in lifetime form and he just sits in, overloaded on the final turn with nowhere to go.
-
Great Race, interesting outcome. Certainly was not my pick. I thought Charlie May was going to get the job done. Still big congrats to the connections.

Backstreet Shadow broke before the start

Weak field for this alleged "Battle". Is anyone else tired of watching This Is The Plan. Alywag Hanover didn't even bother with this joke of a race.

That's why it's always a rush to the front at Northfield. It's too easy to get bottled up when there's 9 racing.
-
Ait that the truth. Northfield is like racing in a fish bowl.

Allywag, who I don’t think has ever raced on a half wasn’t there. Who else wasn’t there?

Look at the driving colony that drove in this race! B/C track drivers? Make your own judgments!

Actually this is the worst drive given the post position and the breakers before the 1/16th pole!

Fair Enough. I forgot about the blindswitch Buter found himself in when Ruthless went wide. Still a crap drive from both.

Some of the top horses racing at Woodbine/Mohawk like Wheels on Fire (although he is so big I don't see him taking the turns at all) and American History. Aside from those 2 here are some "open" names: Southwind Gendry, Tattoo Artist, Abuckabett Hanover (also doubt if he would do 1/2 mile), Nandolo N, Hellabalou, Let it Ride N and FunattheBeach N all come to mind.

Tattoo hasn't been great, pretty sure Abuckabett wasn't even invited, Nandolo sucks, Hellabalou would have been the Burke entrant but he went with This is the Plan, Let it Ride is good, but so is Charlie May and he has history at NFLD, Funatthebeach is same connections as Covered Bridge.
Connections of Bernie were whining they didn't get an invite, but the truth is when the race was being assembled his record wasn't all that great and he was coming off a so-so race.
