Who do you have in the 5th?



Yes, the opening of Del Mar is today. The return of the
beautiful people, the pomp & circumstance, the hats, the
smell of the track, and the smell of money.

This year will be not different for some. Others, the economy
has put a damper on their fun. I guess I would be somewhere in
the middle. Del Mar has even shortened their race week because
of the economic situation. There is even talk of the GOV selling
the track (well, the land that track is on).

They are still trying out the Polytrack but this could be the
last year, with them heading back to real dirt. I'm in favor
of going back to dirt, like a lot of the trainers. But I am
happy that there are less serious injuries.

Starting to hear from all my friends that know how much I love to
go to the Track. Planning a few days here and there. I have my first
track day on Sunday with LT and some of her ladies. No matter what
the situation - I will always look forward to going to watch the
ponies run.
