Tim is somewhere in England and seems to be only posting over on Sartin Alums while away.

Jeff,
Last year Woodbine opened on March 31st and had nine 5f races on a 10 race card the other race was 5 1/2f. Looks like this is normal for this time of year.

Hi Jeff. Every year they have 4.5 f and 5 f races for the first 2 weeks of the season.

They sometimes throw in a 6f race.

The surest sign of Spring in my calendar! Every year when I lived in Toronto, I would look forward to the return of live racing to Woodbine as solace from the sometimes endless winters. It still looks a lot like winter up here a few hours north of the track, but my mood is already changing. Hoping to get down a few times in May!

Thanks guys for the heads up,I started to play there late last year and liked it.

Ted,

I know what that endless winter is like.
It seems like you will never see a green blade of grass again.
Here it has been in the around 85 to 90 every day and I have already used up over half of my jug of Round Up concentrate.
Me thinks you need to relocate.

Froggy

P.S.
Thanks to RDSS and an old copy of Energy the Air Conditioning folks are supposed to come today.

Tim,I downloaded Woodbine for Sunday and there seems to be alot of layoff horses that havent run since Woodbine closed.Any suggestions on how to play the track with these layoff horses?Or do you prefer waiting till they have run over the course a bit before playing there.Thanks Jeff

Just about ALL of them are going to be layoffs. Play the dominant energy distribution for the distance based upon standards and be sure to check how the track is running.

Place-itis with big odds just tempting me to death as Great Blue in the nightcap on Friday just about killed me!
