Having so much fun. Lovely setting for the track, ringed by “mountains.” Well, really tall foothills, anyway.
The grandhouse is packed with race fans, and it’s separated a good distance from the casino—yay!
We’re in the clubhouse... air-conditioned dining terraces, all-you-can-eat buffet, free t-shirt, free commemorative program, free WV Derby glass, casino coupon... and there’ll be free entertainment at Lucky’s afterward.
My guy Sir Anthony did not hit the board in the 7th.
Silver Dust came away the convincing winner... my congratulations to the connections.
Next up, the WV Derby. Mr. Money is atop the market at 3/5. As a recreational bettor, I won’t be wagering on him at those low odds. I’ll have to look around for some longshots that have a shot to hit the board at a price. Perhaps the 1, 6, or 8.
