I don't know if you were being sarcastic towards the fact that I make time for my mother OR if you were serious about helping yours for 2 minutes but if it was the former, that's unacceptable.

For the record, after checking the NYRA horsemen's condition book, there are no overnights or entries for Saturday's card as of 7:08 p.m. today. Were you referring to Friday's card? Should I be sarcastic to you in return?

No, I won't stoop that low.

I know there's a decrease in foals but after watching NYRA consistently card ten races and many times eleven at Belmont, I am in shock that we don't have 9 races to fill on a weekday at Aqueduct.

Plus, Aqueduct is closing for ten days in December. Is Cuomo winning the battle on shutting down one of my favorite tracks to wager on???
Could the reason possibly be that usually there are 4 days off when switching from between tracks for NYRA and this year it's just the usual 2 days off ?

With the exception of the first two days of racing (Wed-Thurs of this week), Aqueduct is carding 9 races per day, even weekends, through Monday November 9th (Veterans Day). This is readily available on NYRA.com as TLG implied.

i just noticed that starting in Aqueduct there is a new claiming rule like they have in Sourthern California. if your horse is on a long layoff you can run him back the first time at the same claiming level as he last raced in and he is ineligible to be claimed if you enter that way. the way i see it, if you want your horse to be claimed you can enter that way too. its good to know as a bettor because if he runs unprotected you have an idea that the trainer isn't that fond of the horse. the only thing about that is, i highly doubt that anyone would want to claim a horse under those circumstances.

I was hoping so. That's why my thread started. And, that's why it started with a question mark. I love NYRA racing & don't want to see it reduced. Especially by the Cuomo cronies. Hence my concern.

Can you kindly tell me where that is posted? I tried but couldn't find that piece of info. I checked under horsemen, entries, general info and the main page. I could not find that anywhere. Hence, my inquisitive thread. I wanted to know.

Thanks in advance.

That is AWESOME! thank you VERY much. I kept clicking condition book index, instead of the proper link.

After seeing 8 races after downloading wed and Thursday's cards on formulator, I gave up and went on PA for some help.

Thanks again Rise Over Run!!!

I meant to say : after checking the NYRA entries, there are no overnights or entries for Saturday's......... not NYRA horsemen's condition book.

Nevertheless, I hope you get my point. Your response was unwarranted, sarcastic, demeaning and disappointing.

Quite frankly, Rise over Run's response was the gentlemanly response I deserved and expected. Not a bash from someone in position to grow the sport.

Anyway, wish you the best Andy. Be well.

Let alone how many horses are available

His dad was railroaded by the then NYRA. His son holds a grudge. In my humble conspiracy opinion, his administration caused the takeout fiasco. Cost Hayward his job, hates horse racing and wants Aqueduct closed.

In a nutshell. I'm not saying it's fact. Just my fear as I don't want Aqueduct closed. I can expand if you'd like.

Cuomo..lol. I remember a bit Carson dropped in a monologue where he had a little play on words with the audience...

"Did you hear that Cuomo has announced he's running for President? Not Mario, but Perry."

On Sunday, I updated the thread to reflect the fact that there are 9 races for Friday's card, not 8 (like Wed & Thur) and how happy I was to see that.

I don't appreciate your sarcasm. For someone who's in a position to grow the game, represent NYRA publicly via TV, in person and the web, you're response to me was disappointing.

Sorry, I didn't realize you wanted me to coddle you. I'll keep that in mind going forward.

Note to self...no more fun joking with EMD4ME.

Got it....all business going forward. Sorry there was some confusion.
