Something is fishy. I just did a sixty mile round trip to get the racing form. THere are only three tracks in it and Santa Anita is not one of them. Very peculiar. Should definitely be there.

On top of that they cancelled yesterday. Not even sure why.

Good luck today, bud. I'll be playing three lesser track I very rrely play because they are the only game in town for me.

 

[bromells]

that really is weird. GG canceled yesterday too and I know that California gets their precipitation in the winter, so I figured it was weather-related.

Let's start 2023 off strong!

thanks Jim I appreciate all this. I am new and it is a struggle for sure. I definitely need to track my action better. will create a spreadsheet with details on track, distance, conditions, class, etc. If I seem to be better with certain types of races, I will focus on those. I know for a fact that I am particularly bad with stakes races but of course those are often the "race of the day" and as a sportsman it's hard not to give it a go.
