You are 1000000% a better bettor than me at PRX. If PRX were the only track in America, I would never wager on a horse race EVER again, zero hyperbole there.
Absolutely detest that cesspool.

Yes , but they're going to be two exciting races.

The track itself can be a piece of shit but it's playability is another story. I am heavily into pedigree which means I end up watching all the big tracks in this country but great bloodstock and bigtime trainers can create as much chaos and disorder for a player as the worst bloodstock at the crappiest tracks in the country. Parx is playable. EMD you can't play the place because the amount of information you need to be confident in a bet is so massive you put the place down. You can smoke anybody on the tracks you do play though. We all have our strengths and weaknesses. My strength is being able to win anywhere. I can't bog down on 1 circuit. You can. I love talkin horses with you though brother!

I've been there, maybe 50 times in my life. I swear, even if I focused on it, I would starve.
I hate open claiming races and supertrainers, maybe that's why I hate it.
I can however, crush EMD open claiming races and Portland Meadows claiming races. I do know why......you fill in the rest as to why.
Just because I hate something doesn't mean it's not good. It just mean I suck at it . SO, please crush them and let us know about it buddy! I love to see people win and enjoy this awesome game

I think the really bad PA Derby Day was 2012. My Miss Aurelia over Questing and the Handsome Mike shocker.

Parx is my home wagering location, I'm there ~100 times per year. I've left more in tips on beer purchases than I have in wagers placed on the live racing product.

Trying to decide whether to go to Parx. Missed Songbird at Saratoga, saw the colts at the Haskell. Worth the hour trip or too much of a zoo there?

It's usually okay on PA Derby day. Crowded but not ridiculous.

You know me, too real to hold back. Although I make a concentrated effort to do so sometimes.

I'm sorry CJ . Disappointed in myself!
I remember betting against him......Not much more. I remember him being on the lead on the rail. Then, no drama, horse quit.
Is my memory correct?

Plus this bias thread has dominated things around here recently
I'm even studying how dead the outer rails are for pigeons who make abrupt landings lately
