Handle continues to plummet. Meanwhile there are some great stars in the game but they never meet. If not for Zenyatta's amazing streak, the entire year would be a wash. Her win over St. Trinians was electrifying and the race of the year in my eyes, but man it would have been nice to see her try a little more than Rinterval in her next start. Ah well, at least the BC returns to Churchill where we can at least hope for some drama. -jpAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-33521826561275373442010-08-16T10:35:00.641-04:002010-08-16T10:35:00.641-04:00Susan, I think the tote is just plain ugly....the ...Susan, I think the tote is just plain ugly....the font is freaking awful - loud, inelegant, and totally out of place. The old infield totes were perfectly functional, even with any missing bulbs (which kind of added to the charm as far as I was concerned).

I cannot possibly see how NY approved this company. It is nonsense that The Lottery stated they undertook extensive background checks in about two months. <br /><br />The gaming authorities in New Jersey, with far more experience than NY Lottery in these matters, took over a year to find MGM's connection to Ho's daughter unacceptable.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-65892097697857827952010-08-15T14:34:52.571-04:002010-08-15T14:34:52.571-04:00Actually in the 4th Saturday, the Maid to Win race...Actually in the 4th Saturday, the Maid to Win race, with 3 minutes to go and the 3 horses at 5/2 Maid to Win's place pool was empty compared to the other 2. On $23,000 wagered on her to win, only $4,100 was in her place pool. The other 5/2's had $7,300. Think someone knew something?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
