It's a welcome change, hopefully the racing will get a little better than it's been for the last month or more. At least we'll have a variety of distances, not just 6F, 1-70yds, 1-1/16, or a smattering of 1-1/8 races. Now the distances will range from 6 to 8 furlongs in 1/16 increments, and ideally more 1-1/8 races, the shortest two-turn race we'll see.
Last week I was speculating that the dearth of entries over the last month may have been because trainers were saving their horses for the main track. If today's card is an indication, I guess I was wrong - only 57 betting interests in the nine races.

Well I guess I'll wait a few more weeks until Belmont Park opens.
First race on the main track - Rodriguez wins with Cornelio Velasquez, second was Michelle Nevin with Jose Ortiz, third was David Jacobson with Irad Ortiz.

It's not that I was anticipating the main track at Aqueduct so much, but the end to the inner track and possibly some decent fields. But I still had in the back of my mind that at least things would get better in April once Belmont Park opens. Now, you can't say anything bad about Belmont, can you?
Anyway, that's one of my favorite movies too - love it! That scene is just before the nut started shooting holes in the oil cans. I love the scene where he was rich and was walking around his garden with the mobsters talking about how they have to keep the eggplants out of the neighborhood, and he eventually said "sir, you are talking to a ******".
Another one of my favorite scenes (there seem to be dozens of them, like when he was working at the carnival and said "step right up and win some crap!")
Look at the face of his brother when his mother read the letter....remember, everyone has a special purpose!

yes its full of great lines. it is a classic.
another one is when he goes broke and is writing out the checks for "1 dollar AND NINE CENTS!!!!!"
then he starts to leave and is like, "I don't need anything!! just this pen!! and that's it!!"
and yes give me a minute or two. im sure I can come up with something about Belmont.

Damn! How did I miss that? Every time my wife and I share food, I say "what about germs".
Biker Chick: Gimme a bite of your corn dog!
Navin: What about germs?
Biker Chick: Put a rubber on it!
