"Today Is The 4th Day Of November In The Year Of Our Lord 2011."

"It Is Now Post Time."  People across the Nation will be hearing that a lot in the next two days..
We're Off.  Couple of friends heading down AC today to get the cup rolling. Good Luck Guys.  Waiting till tomorrow to hear the old call to post...Well we been playin with horses for quite awhile, and it was kind of amusing. Funny how when and where we grew up was in The City Of Philadelphia, yet we had that little stretch of Fairmount Park we called the crick, where we could horse back ride, fish, swim and just in general "WHERE THE FUCK IS THE GENERAL." go there to hang out.  Not, everyone growing up in big cities have that, another way we were fortunate to grow up in the Yunk.. I will give you some of the picks for tomorrows races, they are all sure winners. Yep, gonna hit all of them. Fuck, if I didn't think that way, there is no sense betting those old Trifecta's and Superfecta's.  I have seen some nice ones in the past, and I have hit a few nice ones, and I hope to again tomorrow..Gotta do a little race track history for you guys.. The oldest track in The United States is The Fairgrounds, in New Orleans. Then they built that old Saratoga in upstate New York, anybody that ever wants to see the ambiance of an old race track should take a trip to Saratoga some August, it hasn't changed since the mid 1800's. It is August and they don't have air conditioning, yet no one seems to mind.  Some of the greatest horses of all time ran at Saratoga and still do.  During the Civil War, Grant sequestered all of the thourougbreds at Saratoga for the Union Army, that must have been one fast Cavalry..Next believe it or not, came Pimlico, and Monmouth, followed by Churchill Downs.., The history of horse racing, is a fantastic subject. From the breeding and the training and the something unknown, that make some champions and then make some Super Champions..That is what makes the Breeders Cup so special, these horses have all earned the right to be in their respective races.. The true Champions will be firing at the finish, and as always it will be two exciting days of racing..I don't think any of Turtle's, Bluebell's, Apache's or any Rock Hill favorites lineage will be running tomorrow, but if there is a horse with Turtle, Bluebell or Apache in it's name I am fucking betting it....Later some picks, for tomorrow..
