Picking where to play is just so important. The Create-A-Card is a great innovation... I rely on it totally.
I thought the rain made GP a little more digestible on Donn day...
I would agree Keeneland is not one of my favorites either, although the big fields on turf are worth a shot sometimes.
In contrast to some of the other posts here...I just ignore the whole Polyturf issue and play Turfway straight up. At first I thought it really favored the frontrunners with that duststorm effect...but if there's enough pace in the race, the ones coming from off the pace have a shot...like most everyplace else.
Also, Arlington and Hawthorne have become real mainstays for me... Too many short fields in Cali for me.
