Ride The Pony

It's a beautiful day to go to the horse races at Oaklawn Park. Not just the nice weather but since they had a lot postponed last weekend, today is now a massive day at the track.

The 9th race is the $60,000 Spring Fever, the tenth race will be the $250,000 Southwest Stakes and the CLASSIX carryover pool stands at $5,384.

What does all that mean? Well, it means I'll be eating the world's greatest corned beef sandwiches, drinking beer, playing Blackjack and betting on horses all day today. It's my first Oaklawn trip of the year too. I'll post some pics from the world's best horse track tomorrow.

Here's a video to set the mood... ride it, my pony... OK, well it has nothing to do with horse races but it does talk about riding a pony. Sort of.
