Rail Report: July. 25, 2008
Volume #3/Issue #21
Handle Report: It seems tracks and many horse racing punting outlets
are down a lot since the end of the triple crown…rumors have it according
to our field guy, who has been reporting for 8 years on what horse racing
establisshments just realized, that finally if you add up the concession
prices, admission, parking, BEER PRICES, and everything else, and up
the cost of living including fuel and regular food prices etc…we have no
money to punt on! Free to park, free to get in, cheaper things like food,
and beer might lead to using what’s left to punt on…instead, we can’t go
out to the races as much because we can’t afford to go out three or four
days to the races anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lava Man Report: Thanks for the great racing run! If it is time to retire, so be it-but you gave us some good thrills…
Magna Report: Another CEO calls it quits…we are still waiting for a phone call for employment!
Hileah Report: There is a god!
Slots Report: In some cases, they are not that bad of an option for tracks…see below.
Woodlands Report: Another feeder track going down…
Portland Report: Keep Portland Meadows running! We need feeder tracks in the northwest!
Saratoga Food Report: $67 and $72 bucks for a buffet on weekends? We can’t even eat twice at a Vegas starched-filled buffet for $14 bucks before we were full…brutal!
British Steroid Ban Report: Oh, those Aussies will try anything!
Curlin Report: Big work in the slop…um, stick to dirt Steve!
Well Armed Report: Pacific Classic odds should be 3-5 after that win!
Lone Star Lake Report: Hearts go out to horse who died in lake or out of it…is it such a good idea to have a lake so close to the rail?
Iron Horse Report: They all are running at Mountaineer…
Arlington Rail Report: Anyone at the entrance gates know what is going on?
Jockey Injury Data Report: No reports yet if they are going to do a “punter’s inquiry” report yet…
Arlington Rail Report II: Great turf racing!
Rose Report: Cut to 90 days…as long as he stays away from orange whips.
Pinnacle Report: Ah, Detroit racing returns and we can’t wait to see if it can survive gas prices…
Arlington Rail Report III: Find of the year…has to be one of the best OTBs’ in the country called “Trackside”…free to get in, free to park and great food and beer for either budget upstairs and down! Others in the country should take note!
Evening Attire Report: Next stop: Breeders Cup! Congrats to the great old warrior!
Del Mar Surface Report: We wanted a faster track, not the old Del Mar where closers have no shot!
Del Mar Race Replays Report: Anyone have any idea where these might be available online and anywhere in the country?
Friday Night Report: Thank god for the cheap beers at the downs! I can afford to come out more than once a week now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Belmont Fire Report: No reports yet if NYRA let a squirrel loose…
Luke Report: Thanks for the beers down in Phoenix when I met you…thanks for the great calls at the track. The word we used to describe your calling was “like the old school.”
Bay Meadows Report: August 17th is D-Day for the old track…
Big Brown Report: For some reason, it seems so anti-climatic how fast he works…
Haskell Report: Big Brown vs. Pletcher.
Zenyatta Report: Great horse ready to roll once again!
Lord of Eagles Report: Lovedagoat.com Official horse returns in action tonight! 0-for-36 we believe is ready to roll!
Owners Report: Don’t you hate “band-wagon owners” who jump to trainer-to-trainer especially when the trainer you have been using has an off year stat-wise and they decide they must go with the stats to a trainer who is having a good year but can’t train their way out of a paperbag and just has good horses…
Summer Doldrums Report: Read article! You will see why!
