    Close the Schools and Bars and Stay Home, but Keep the Horses Racing

    Cases are increasing rapidly in Nigeria, only a matter of time before they shut down. Aussie rules football is probably the only sports left. Never watched it though lol

    The South African racing is a good product in my opinion. I've been following it very closely for a over a year now. It's only 1 track a day for the most part, 2 sometimes on Friday and Saturday. While that reduces the action, it makes it a lot easier to familiarize yourself with the jockeys, trainers, horses, etc. It's available on most exchanges which is good, and parimutuel rebates are high if you know who to ask.

    I recommend it.

    Given the HIV levels in the country, I don't think they'll be canceling anytime soon over a little bit of corana virus.

    I enjoy their telecast too. They do a good job with pre race analysis and post race interviews.

    no. we did lose aqu but all the other major tracks are a go at least for this weekend and they are loaded with good races. the fairgrounds in new orleans has the spotlight tomorrow and the last 6 or so from gulfstream are loaded. tampa bay thin early strong late. maybe 4 decent races at santa anita. turfway bad horses but full fields. sam houston at night major stakes races there. woodbine mohawk at night for harness followers. there is enough there from noon to midnight.
