Horse Racing Fantasy Community

Well, here in northern California we have two weeks of summer, county fair racing at several different tracks. Fun to go with the kids and take in the fair and the races.
I haven't done this for years, but I used to try to get to several of them. We're talking about going to the Sacramento Fair with other family members. We'll stay up that way for several days, doing a few other things too. We have invites to stay at two houses, but I prefer to get a motel room.
In the old days, they used to have 2 quarter horse races, 2 harness horse races and 10 thoroughbred races. Now days, thye've even included mule races and arabian races. You see many of the same riders that race at Golden Gate Fields. Russel Baze is always there. Kayla Stra is there too. And many others. They do the county fair races, all through the summer, northern,central and southern California. Del Mar is a great place to go in the summer time. Everybody wears shorts. Lots of beautiful women.

I have a harness racing and thoroughbred racetrack near me. Vernon Downs and Finger Lakes Racetrack are both fun tracks to go to. I find it easier to bet on thoroughbreds that it is to bet on standardbreds.

is such a beautiful place, While visiting in 1995 saw the Hopeful and visited the Museum. Fell in love with the area in general, Upper New York State, Vermont...Just fantastic. I particularly like the racecourse setting with all the trees. On another visit saw Spectacular Bid at Hollywood Park..Couldn't believe the continual two lines of planes approaching Lax. The Bid won that day along with an ex NZer named Stevor. The facilities were excellent but have to say that we enjoyed Saratoga more.
