Mountaineer has the $750 k WV Derby this Saturday. This is really going to be great. I can't wait. And for us horse bettors they have a "perfecta" bet and they went overboard and now offer a "trifecta" bet for this race. Oh and I almost forgot it is also the "first leg of a daily double".

That's all folks!!!!!!!!!

They hope we all like it and will come back and play Mountaineer more often.

I love the first time starter entered in the race before the feature.

From the http://www.weirtondailytimes.com/ on July 31,8
By BILL MOONEY Special to the Herald-Star CHESTER — John Engelhardt, the publicity director at the River Downs racetrack near Cincinnati, refers to Marble Cliff as, “the horse without a country.” Engelhardt, a jocular fellow, is exaggerating a bit, for Marble Cliff does have a country. What he does not have attached to his name, however, is certainty as to the state where he was bred.

cj, that 3-y-o firster is intriguing, to say the least. 50/1. :jump:
