Yonkers today...11 races in 5 plus hours

[The Unstable]

If you are going to Yonkers today, you would have to be insane.  Why would it take 5 plus hours to race 11 races???  Mr Faraldo since you run this Jewel of racing please answer. Terrible. 

[Harness Stats]

Because this is their big day.  Every race worth 225,0000 or more.  All the owners are there and it's not going to be 30 second winner photos with no one around.  Every ceremony will take an extra five minutes and the International even more.

Faraldough needs to be banded

And the other 25 minutes between races?

Question of the day—-

Will the Europeans bet more than the North Americans on this card??

[Papillon]

i feel after todays race....

Jiggy Jog is better than both Atlanta and Hannelore in my opinion

Ake doesnt race her much...has a carefully managed schedule

too bad Joviality S wont come over

JJ should try for a few top European events if she is this good at this age

having them all race with the same color saddle cloths is ilogical--i never understood that

dumb question

the pools were not international

[SwankToliverA]

Faraldough needs to be banded

Agree 

[sledge hammer]

No commingled pools with Europe = fail


Same-color saddlecloths = MASSIVE FAIL

Someone give me ONE benefit to having all the horses yellow saddlecloths? Name one...it's impossible.

[JT]

Same saddle colors is stupid.. always has been. Jiggy Jog is unstoppable right now.. I would keep racing her rather then breeding to her yet.. She has the opportunity to reach rarefied air.

Who is the idiot announcer who said they went 1609 meters in 1.12

1609 Meters is 1 MILE dumbass

If they went 1.12 for the mile they would beat thoroughbreds by the length of the staight

Four foreign horses break and the race is a huge bore for $1 million! This was a GIFT qualifier basically for Ake for $1 million!

[MIKE CAMPBELL]

M1 tonight with several amatuer races will be more exciting and their handle will be higher as well. Yonkers is a cesspool.

Why isn't Brennan there today of all days?
