THANK YOU
After 22 years, this is the end for “Inside Racing” on the radio. I wanted to thank all of you who have listened to the show for affording me the opportunity to share my thoughts/picks/gripes/fixes for a sport I grew up loving and have continued to love despite its many flaws.

On a Roll with Double-Digit Payoffs!
It wasn't the easiest week to find prices, considering the short fields, but JAY found three of them. Last Sunday's Free Play, Surf Song started the ball rolling paying $14.80 to win.

Closing the Weekend Strong!
Late Free Play for Race 10 is posted! Check out the Sunday Free Plays!

JAY got off his weekend schneid in the get away 9th with Captain Choochies. The $8.00 winner keyed a $196.00 trifecta to close the weekend out! We say closing it out, because Monday is a rainout at SA, due to the coming storm.
