A winner or a loser today?

Re: Turfway's holiday meet opens today

finished in the black but not a huge amount..1st pick 4 was generous...tried to beat a couple of chalks I shouldn't have further down the card...if I lived there I would be there often

Gotta love the close-up action of half-mile harness tracks.

No binoculars needed.

I also love harness racing in the daylight hours.

There is something about afternoon harness racing I can't resist

I remember the day-night doubleheaders at Hawthorne back in the day.

Always enjoyed the matinee programs.

Went to the home of the Charlestown Chiefs yesterday...today scratching Parx off the list

Re: Turfway's holiday meet opens today

Never been to Parx but no great desire to get there either.

The Pennsylvania takeout rates are embarrassing.

Token race track so they can offer historical horse racing machines.

is the artificial surface going to be used for the winter meet or are they going to card dirt and artificial on the same day?
Im tolerant of old facilities but that place was a wreck....glad to see what theyre doing there.
DED opens today I love that meet

Nice flip for Hard Rock as they had just bought the place along with the downtown Cincy casino...

Churchill sees the big picture here....full blown gaming is coming to KY horses or not......and the area this is in is BOOMING economically.......and the runways at CVG are less than a mile away....along with Amazon's new multi BILLION dollar air hub
