My old father in law did the NYT crossword puzzle every day - along with the DRF for Oaklawn! He'd walk around the house asking if anyone had seen his pencil...it was in his teeth! True tale! But he could tell you pretty much whatever the Trnr/Jock combo on the card that day was the one to watch.
Whether I'm playing or not, I handicap some track every day.
Anyone at DMR this week?
