Title: Vernon 6/12 EBC 3yr old trots and 3yr NYSS c&g pace
Post by: rainman2 on June 11, 2026, 11:21:43 PM: Early post time 1215.

Forecast-40% chance of rain between 1 and 4 pm when the races are going on.

Looks like the track did the shippers a big favor with an early post. The horses get home after at sundown and the drivers get to catch their regular drives at night.

The only worthy races are the first six.

It's not forecasted to rain during those.

Then a 75% chance of rain / 1/2" between 2-4 pm.

So come hang out with us and then will hit the BigM and Mohawk for some of their stakes - weather all clear - FAST! ;D

Worthy races?

For the owners or bettors??

I’m up here now awaiting the rain to come down on me.

Would the horses and drivers currently racing at Monticello be an improvement over the horses and drivers currently racing at Vernon??

The purses of the first six races, the type races they are, quality stakes races.

If all horses had past performances on we track, sadly not the case.

Weather forecasts too, often unpredictable, when there is even a hint of precipitation that it can go either way.

I came up here to get away from Florida. After the rain, it feels like Florida today.

It's coincidentally almost identical today.
