Earlier, I mentioned the website service I use "123" is really not up to par, compared to some of the other, bigger companies...just now I started getting a flood of complaints from customers trying to access my site--and getting "Gateway" errors.

Those are on the server side...there is nothing I can do about it.

Here's the message I got back from the site contact:

Hello Greg, my name is Max and I'm happy to assist you 🙂
Recently our team detected an issue and immediately worked to solve it. The service is now working properly.
We are sorry for the inconvenience and our team is taking steps to prevent such cases in the future.

Woooooo! Busy day...I've been sitting in this seat for the better part of a week. My daughter brought me a breakfast from McDonald's this morning--at 4:00PM I was able to nuke it in the microwave and eat. I am NOT complaining, mind you.

All the orders today were for--what else? -Speed Demons. I didn't even notice, one customer purchased Best-Five, but I just automatically sent him Speed Demons.

His lucky day--he gets a free program. I can't and wouldn't ask for it back. I just sent him the Best-Five, so everybody's happy.

I stopped sending CDs completely, couple years ago. The reason: I have to charge tax if sent on CD--there is no tax involved on digital delivery.

Some badly needed exercise is in order--while I have time think I'll ride my bike around the neighborhood.

like the farmer said to the 'tater:
I'll plant you now--
and dig you later

A little tact works wonders, barshoe...yes, even on the internet.

Since DRF and Trackmaster both sell this same report-so we can't offer printing of this in the program. There are other ways to have a copy of this report--take a screen shot, or use the snipping tool in Windows--save it to file and print. You can even print it right in the snipping tool, if you like.

I explained this in detail in the directions--at least 3 times. It's not really a big deal to most, I wouldn't think.

If you need a snipping tool--enter that in your search box at your bottom tray--then pin it to your tray for easy access.

THANKS...

[NorCalGreg]

Thank you, barshoe...I appreciate your business

Wanted to show you how you can put your spot plays, win bets...anything you want on one page. Using the snipping tool, save whatever plays you like.
I'm concentrating on Parx, because they run almost year-round, and Parx is the longshot king of American racetracks. Unlike others, I love the scheming and conniving that goes on here.

These are the spot plays I'm interested in at Parx...another tester is looking at other plays. If you don't use the snipping tool, all your spot plays will print out on separate pages.

I mentioned previously I was not very familiar with Indiana "Grand" racing. Here is today's 4th race lineup:





I didn't even have to look, to know this was a typical "Racino"-where horse racing is an afterthought.

Ridiculous and embarrassing

I tend to look at Indiana Grand, like Oaklawn, as a pro-racing racino. It's about more than one race.

Indiana Grand actually invests in the horseracing product - they're adding a large barn AND a dormitory for the backside workers:

“Each year, we turn many stables away because we just don't have the stall space for them,” said Eric Halstrom, Vice President and General Manager of Racing at Indiana Grand Racing & Casino. “As our racing continues to grow at the national level, we receive even more requests to race at our facility. This addition will further solidify Indiana Grand's as a premier racing destination.”

They have one of the longer meets of the year with 120 racing days from April-November, running what is now a somewhat atypical 4 and sometimes 5 days a week of 9 and 10 race cards.

I'd consider the racing there as more than just an afterthought. It's been a nice product to wager on much of the year.
