I am heading to Baltimore starting on May 2. ( My son if off of work May 9/10) I was deciding on north or south, leaning towards north, this confirms it. The Meadows on Wednesday, Charles Town Thursday. Unsure if Thistledown or Mountaineer Mon/Tues or a combo.

I have been waiting  on Anthony giving am update on schedule. 

Would be great to see Tomboy, Judy and Wainey  all race that weekend.

Hope all y’all have a gathering.  My wife has me booked on kayak trips for the next few weeks.  @maywoodal are you still trying for Oak Grove next week?  We should be camping about 30 minutes north.  Although if severe weather works its way in to the forecast , then we may bail.  Keep me posted.

Good luck to Tomboy Strong tonight.  Hopefully, she is fixed from her interference issues last week (chewing at herself is a mild way of saying that she is interfering).  Something changed.  Fatigue, soreness, shoeing issue, mental stress?  Something caused her stride to be altered.  One time I would love to hear from McGinnis or any of the primary trainers.

Good luck, that's Derby Day.

The potential road trip just added an extra layer of intrigue.  Word on the street is that Memento Mori's next race will be a week from Monday (May 4th) at Saratoga Raceway.  Now I just have to convince Rich to come along.  He lives not far from Saratoga.  I could pick him up early Saturday morning from Albany.  Two nights at Northfield Park, and then deliver him back home on Monday afternoon.  Wish me luck!!  LOL

I was looking forward to Oak Grove on Monday the 27th.  However, Mother Nature has decided to drop the high risk of hail, strong winds and even tornadoes over our camping site.  No thanks.  We will stay home until Tuesday and live for another day.  Safe travels everyone.

Not feeling it. So going to skip the weekend, and just drive up to Saratoga on Monday. 

May the 4th be with us.  I hope we don't finish fourth.

Having just drove the truck and travel trailer over 1,000 miles in the last two weeks, I feel your pain.  Enjoy Saratoga though.  C’mon Mori, let’s get the NY Connection that long overdue win picture.
