Any thoughts ?

We moved to the Hot Springs area right at the beginning of 2019. I enjoyed a respectable season at Oaklawn, attending most every day, with results improving as the year went on and I got more familiar with the racing and the horses.
As 2019 moved into 2020, I got more connected with some people in the racing community. Once again attending most of the days until the COVID spectator shutdown, I found it a little more challenging in the 2020 season to look just at the horses and the numbers without being affected by my developing opinions (both favorable and unfavorable) about "the human element" connected to those horses.
