Weather sucks here at Saratoga.
« on: June 07, 2025, 11:39:09 AM »
All the years of going to the races, I've never been a big fan of rain. Just kind of dreary and rainy here at "The Spa". Most people inside keeping dry. Some people who didn't bring rain slickers are soaked. Track looks like soup. I just hit the 2nd race with a 1st time starter for Bill Mott. I'm hoping the weather "breaks" alittle the track dries out a little. Off the turf for the 3rd race.

Thanks. I think the crowd is smaller than track officials had hoped. Still people coming in. Two stakes races cancelled until Sunday. I'm taking a flyer on #1 with Dylan Davis who had a big day yesterday. Lots of scratches on card.

Thanks! I was never a big winner with Linda Rice horses. I skipped the 4th. I figured the chalk would win. You gotta bet here early so I just put $10Win $40Place on Bill Mott's #8. I've hit both the races I played so far. Going for the "Hat Trick". LOL!

  • dougie: Harness racing Revolution.....I understand why you feel the way you do. But like me, there are many who support the care of horses and the work that you do. Why penalize your supporters for the actions of a few misguided ignorant shit stirrers?

  • Harness Racing Revolution: Here's my response, I don't care. And not a fucking thing they can do about it. Same way they choose to not care. Sorry dude.

  • dougie: Harness Racing Revolution.....I never knew the Iceland connection. I believe it when you tell me cyber harassment is illegal. But if the admins choose to do nothing, what avenue is there for the folks who want to enjoy the "horse talk" in this group?

  • Harness Racing Revolution: dougie, DDOS attacks are illegal, in this country. Plop is based in Iceland. But cyber harassment is also illegal, in the US. Most of these IPs talking shit are US based. Just saying. Admins condone it, so fuck em!  ngc3

  • Harness Racing Revolution: JFA, ever hear the phrase "Payback's a bitch"? Blame the people responsible. I just keep chuckling at them having a tantrum over it now.  ngc3

  • JOHN FRANK: What the point,MIKE. You don't get to fiqure out those with monikers. At times no one do. But if one inquesitive,trusy me: You will eventually find out who they be. And Haters be HATERS. In 37 years only one bothered me. And I know all ,includin my most hated. Why you think you responsible for slowdown,the same you think you know everythin is beyound me. And there are ways to correct this situation. Don't think you can beat the system.
