The very first time I ever went to the track I bet on two horses just from their walk past and won the exacta.

Can you bet away from the track on the race or only at the track?

You may simulcast wager at most local horse tracks in the US, in fact a lot of venues have parties for the occasion.

I would have Afleet Alex as show, but thats just me :)

but I have to say that Bellamy Road just feels like it can get to the Breeder's with a chance at a triple crown you know?

Oh yeah, I'm sure they'll arrest anyone caught breaking into restricted areas.

I don't follow horse racing any more.

There was many a day when we went to Vegas where I lost my money in the slots and had to go to the Sports Book to make some back on the horses. lol

These days I just play in the FR Nascar Fantasy League for points. Came in second place last year, struggling a bit this year so far. I handicap them the same way though.:)

What a great story they had on ESPN just now about the little girl Alex and her lemonade stand trying to raise money for childhood cancer. She died last August but the partnership for Afleet Alex learned of the story and will donate a portion of their winnings to her family to continue raising money for her cause.

Afleet Alexs' Mother couldn't nurse him so he was fed with a beer bottle. There must be more to his story.
