Jc - i appreciate ur fustration. The minutiae in programs can sometimes be a difference maker. Its probably skipped over by the vast percentage of betting public while for you it can be a valuable variable.

I see mistake after mistake in program but appreciate that this isnt a product being produced that is a financial bonanza to business interests. Usta and the tracks have bigger headaches these days so you and i are stuck with what we get.  Sometimes the same trainer is listed as a new claim etc.

Besides, im aging but it appears to me everything fucked up these days. Cant complain about it all or your whole day is full of angst. Id turn the page with the satisfaction that you can distinguish the ebersols. I see the name and all i think of is the sports annoucer i listened to for yrs.

I think he's gotta shot at resolving this issue if he and others reach out to the right people...Alls he's asking for is to buy a vowel..

I want to see batting average next to drivers b4 the one driving that night... especially horses shipping in from other tracks that I don't usually bet and it happens if I'm betting a track that say I don't bet everyday that a driver drove the horse I'm looking at and he's not racing that night there..so I gotta dig and search what this guy's batting average is...

We gotta rock the boat and get these issues resolved..we're not asking for blood ..just a letter here and there and some numbers...I say we protest and riot..If not for ourselves but for the children ..future handicappers

Have at it. A good riot requires some guy fawkes masks though. Usta appears to be pretty receptive to constructive criticism and the two tracks involved couldnt be more customer friendly especially to handicappers. See if you can latch onto someone on the casino side at the tracks. Bring the northfield program with some red marker changes.
 
Im with you guys 100 % in spirit.
