You're right JT, the following race at Scioto I'm recognizing BATTLE HILL & SCRAPPYS LOVE in their stakes trot race. With their OPEN (CHARLIE MAY) they have 7/16 quality races.

This is the best time of year for racing.

It's literally the Christmas (or Hanukah) of racing from Spring through the Breeders Cup, with right now being the best for Standardbred & the SPA! 11.chrz

Because at that actual aforementioned time of the year, it's like southern California for t-breds, and snowy Monticello, Mohawk and cancellations galore everywhere. Yuk.

One race call was in a fucking blizzard, and the caller said..."ahhhh...ahhhh...a hhhh, your guess is as good as mine." ;D
