Be prepared for alot of post drag. Ever since Mark Patterson resigned it is horrible. When he was there they started right at post time. Now a 10 minute drag at least. I used to play Mountaineer alot on Sunday nights, not much else to choose from, but not much anymore.

I read Deshawn Parker will be guest analyst along with Nancy Mcmichael. I have not tuned in since Mark left. Still on the fence.

agree Mark was the major reason for tuning in

they previously NEVER has any drag-but without Mark their handle must have dropped enough to install a drag

now i look at Ocean Downs on sunday nights

The site is becoming impossible, way too much time and concern to log in, post, obviously y'all know.  When anything distracts us, doing what we're doing it's a problem. 

I enjoy hanging with all you, it's productive too.  If this continues here at Horseplop with the lag I'd definitely like to continue our handicapping outside of here as individuals, a group, until things are fixed here.  I'd give you my email upon request...Think about it.

Ellis Park has 4 stakes races between the 7-10 race (342pm - 512pm).  Their track configuration is 1 1/8 mile dirt, 1 mile turf similar to Gulfstream Park, SPA and Aqueduct dirt and outer courses. 

Will post selects when I have, if I can lol!

dd  26/236

I like #6 in race 2

draws outside main foes-if he has any speed will have an advantage with Irad turning for home

also 6/7 exacta box--its Dutrow after all.... the master

[JT]

Stupid piece of crap website wouldn't let me post it earlier, step 1 complete. Race 4 scares me. Need 2 bombs in race 2 and 3 except the 8 in race 2

[JT]

I like the 2,6,and 7, but hoping for1,4 or 5

[JT]

My bad, my pick 5 is 140 bucks, not 145

[Trigger]

Nobody worry about past posting, yesterday was nuts.  We're busy and have lives too!

Just focus on what you have to do!

Win!!!!

If and when your report, before, during, after that's cool - like a few fucking thousand dollars mean a hill of beans, we need 5,6,7 figure scores damn it! 

Trust my brothers!
