my comment, sorry no selections
however i assume this is their biggest day of the year
and no in house production show of any kind
just the old regular announcer reading out what anyone can see on the program
no other 'experts" offering other analysis or perhaps how the race might play out
kind of sad really but not shocking for harness racing

They clearly don't care!  Sucks for such a nice card.   tmbz1

No Ake driving today?  Driver changes everywhere.
He's in Canada for Wellwood Elims tonight.

Boxing 1-6 in the 8th.  Clever Cody has to be better with A-A-Ron off.

Merriman has driven him into the ground the last few starts.  Thought a change of pace would have been good for him.  Turns out the horse isn't that special against these.  Don't misunderstand, I don't thin Mark Mac is that good, just an angle.

How many grand circuit races has Arod won? How many has Mark won in his career? Mark is light years ahead of some bullring driver.  tmbz1

Why was he programmed then?  He could have flown with Yannick and Dexter to Canada.

Can Melander make up for his absolute shambles of a hambo day

So far 2 starts, yet to hit the board

6 starters 1 2nd 1 3rd

Better than a disaster but not going to cut the mustard with that spending
