many simulcast outlets won't show them. Our coverage here never starts until those races have cleared.

Just got a clarification on the simulcast feed: Medication issue. Mules treated outside the stated time window. Would have required 11 of the 14 entrants to be scratched.

Are you serious?

Yesterday they bet $130K on the mule race while paying out a purse of $3K.

I was serious....I know nothing about mule races (but I do know that mules aren't called colts and fillies!).

Until recently, many times the bloodline info for mules was listed as "Unknown by Unknown". :) So much for geneology.

Racing without meds? Surely you jest.

Give it to 'em whether they need it or not.
