98-100 degrees at Ellis is commonplace. July-August in the Evansville area has to be one of the most hot/humid places around. Besides guys with low level claimers feel they can't afford to cancel.

The PETA crowd thought Monmouth was giving away free prozac.

I'm not being critical -- just wondering what the priority is -- is it about the welfare of the horses or about the welfare of the horsemen?

I would say there is a line when it is only about the welfare of the horse, and a line where it is all about the horsemen. It's the gray murky area in between those lines that confuses people.

94 degrees at Belmont...nothing near the 100 they were predicting...
Dew point 61...humidity 33%
Good thing they waited on their decision, just like I said...smart move NYRA!

Lambo were you @ Mth today? I was there and didn't see any PETA types. Matternof fact I saw hardly anyone. I've been at Monmouth on at least 10 days that were hotter than today it wasn't a big deal.

Actually, he is!
I thoroughly enjoyed my visit with him at Toga and look forward for another.
