Glad to be here

[kingoftherapids]

i've been a member of a few other horse racing boards for a while, and i just want to introduce myself here. I live about a mile from oaklawn park in hot springs, ar, and i hope to provide some insight and insider info on some ponies here. right now the best three year old we have on the grounds is elite alex... you guys better watch for this one. winslow homer and havre de grace have been breezing beautiful in the mornings and the stables of larry jones, ingrid mason, and randy morse are all sending out many live horses. allen milligan bagged 4 a couple of sundays ago, so he is really starting to heat up. any questions that you guys have shoot em my way... i go into the barns many mornings and i hang out with the jocks and trainers a lot so i'll be throwing some live ones your way!!! :jump::jump::jump:

elite alex grabbed a quarter in his race that he broke bad and closed for second. he is a nice horse, i hope they were able to keep him going with that injury, if they did he will be tough in the prep race.

Welcome!

I suppose OP is still "old schooling it" and not offering more superfecta races, or the 10 cent variety? Those guys sure are stubborn! I probably know about OP more than any other track, having broken into the game by studying the Form and results for that track for a couple of years, day in day out, before ever betting a dime on horse racing.

Welcome to the forum!!

[kingoftherapids]

we should be able to race saturday and sunday this weekend. depends on how much snow we get. being in a national park prevents us from putting any chemicals on the track to dry it up and keep it unfrozen...

oaklawn does offer 10 cent supers in race 4 and 9 and 50 cent tri's in all of the races. stilll have a long way to go but 50 cent tri's 2 years ago was a HUGE deal. now they need to make the classix (pick 6) one dollar, put in rolling pick 3's, an early pick 4, and rolling doubles and we would be okay.

elite alex went about 7 wide in the turn after almost throwing calvin over the top of his head at the start. needed 6 staples after the race on his foot from where he fell to the ground. i have a list of runners that i have observed in the mornings that are pretty good in the workouts if you guys want it. please pm me and i will send u the attachment

Eddie Kranepool rocked.

If he can get a response on this forum,
I should look for a new George "The Stork" Theodore avatar.

And oh, welcome to Kingoftherapids. :ThmbUp:
