Suffolk Downs a little redboard with my whine

Just got back home from Suffolk even though there are still races going on. Got absolutely crushed today. It was like the skinny kid at the beach kicking sand in my face and not being able to do anything about it. When I got there the track still had some heavy fog surrounding it. Unfortunately for me my brain was apparently overcome with fog as well. My seventeen year old son even lost. His favorite food truck didn't show today. Between the two of us we didn't cash a ticket.



All kidding aside, there seemed to be a pretty good crowd there today. Lots of families and happy people. Except for me So, I wonder if Amazon doesn't choose this site for its 2nd headquarters, will there be racing, at least on a limited basis, next year?

I'm amazed Suffolk hasn't been sold yet.A large,flat, open piece of property near major highways and the airport in Boston?The thing is it would be too bad for horse racing in New England as there would be nothing left.I only got into horse racing 7 years ago and Suffolk is the only track I took in live (I lived near Springfield until last year) and the several times I went there really solidified my interest in the game.

Little crabby today? I was posting my results after the race. Unless I am wrong, and just ask my wife I am wrong very often, doesn't that qualify as a redboard? It was meant as kind of a whimsical posting. Guess I missed....
