Thought I'd go to the website and look at the Trakus charts. Problem is, they aren't there. Only the current day is up, and any from yeas past. Yesterday, uh uh. :liar:

I thought they couldn't do a worse job of Trakus charts with that teeny tiny 1 inch window to look at them in, but I was wrong.

Can Del Mar do anything right?

Come back in about three or four weeks, say on a Thursday, and see how many of those cuties have come back. Opening day and opening weekend at Del Mar is a social event, a chance to see and be seen.

All in all, Del Mar has a TREMENDOUS website.

I am a fan of Del Mar.

Thank you for the "tips" in the video.
It was titillating.

Don't you mean (as Bob Hope would have said), "Thanks for the mammary"?

Players whining about fake dirt. It's like a dream come true.

I have reason to believe DavidLV has been posting the same post for years.

I don't like indoor malls. I either don't go or I'll complain on the internet 'til they change 'em.

I might be waiting a while and wasting my time all at the same time.

Excerpt:

* Buoyed by a record opening-day crowd of 45,309 and two huge pick-six carryovers, Del Mar's on-track attendance showed a 2.21 percent hike through the first five days compared to last summer. But the good news stopped there for track officials as on-track handle dipped 9.31 percent and overall handle slid 9.24 percent. There were two less races during opening week this year compared to the first five days of 2009. The attendance and handle figures point out that horse racing has not lost its appeal for many fans but they just don't have the extra money to bet because of the economy.

Excerpt:

Total handle was down 8.8 percent on Thursday, 21 percent on Saturday and 28 percent on Sunday -- even with an extra race on the program.
