They might need to ALL/ALL this, payout today's entire pool and get out of dodge and onto tomorrow. The turf is probably a serious ? at this point as the rain continues to fall and now it appears tomorrow afternoon could have T-Storms in the area.

On or off the turf tomorrow? How much rain did they receive ?tney have been bone dry for weeks so my guess would be if it was 2 inches of rain they may be off except the stakes

Gabby Tweeted ( and I retweeted her ) that all five scheduled turf races in the sequence will remain on the turf.

I'm a bit surprised that the races are being left on the turf, considering that the following Saturday is Gulfstream's huge card and they have some big turf races on that day.

The timing of the mandatory payoff is a bit odd the more I think about it. But then again, I don't run a racetrack either. So what do I know?

The courses drain VERY well and they haven't gotten any rain since early February. I wouldn't be surprised if the courses are firm.

Andy, since you spent the winter at Gulfstream and I am sure that you know the horses in Saturday's Rainbow 6 better than most of us.
Could you help us with your selections for the Rainbow 6.
This type of a betting opportunity does not come along to often, if ever.
Thank you Andy for any help you can give us.

That would require me handicapping the races. I didn't.

For what it's worth, trainer Chuck Simon is quite sure that the turf at GP will be firm today.

The work is complete and the ticket is in. Now time to sit back and enjoy the ride.
BOL to all that are playing today. What a day and I've already made the decision that after today I'm on a 5+ week hiatus from horses so that I'm fresh for Oaks/Derby weekend. This run at the rainbow has been time consuming and I need a freshening myself.
Good Luck

Pool at 10 mil expected to go to about 15 mil. Good luck everybody who's playing. My ticket is in already. Might just play one more using the SWAG method lol

GP left 10 mil on table due to making this sequence impossibly hard, no reason not to have 20 In new money.

Evidence is only 10 mil in new money. Should have been at least 15 upwards of 20.
