Just saw their post-scratch decimated card. This used to be the best track in America to bet. Todays card: one 3 horse race, one 4 horse field and a 5 horse field.

They got a new racing secretary, too
He's a moron, there are 2,000 horses on the backstretch and he can't get the races to fill:confused:

I thought the Racing Secretary at CD was Caton Bredar's husband? Is that who you are talking about........

From looking at the back of today's program: Douglas Bredar
Yeah I guess thats him,

They've already carded a few 1 1/4 mile Maiden races. On a Saturday a few weeks ago they opened their card with one. It drew 5 horses and a 1 to 5 favorite.

Anybody know if the ML Oddsmaker at CD has been changed too?
It's not Caton is it?

Churchill today was under threat of a huge thunderstorm. I stayed home and would have scratched my horse too.

Churchill needs to re think the parking situation while the building continues.

Last time she was on (works, CD? or possibly Derby undercard), it was explained that she was doing remote assignments only, no studio stuff. Of course, they didn't say who initiated that arrangement. I think, like Lifson though, she is not from the west coast.

Mike Battaglia is still doing their morning line. He's doing the AP morning line also.

Starting to sound like the track we're getting ready to go to "Arapahoe Park" in Denver. Low purses and 6 horse fields, but oh well.

Even the weekend race cards are atrocious.

They can say Indiana Downs could be taking away their claimers, but the dam Allowance fields won't even fill
