I enjoy Chad free racing
First time ever playing the downs meet and enjoying it.

My take on Chad is he seems to focus on future breeding values for his horses. That is why he goes after Grade 1 wins and sometimes Grade 2\'s. The $1,000,000 race on Saturday is \"only\" a Grade 3 as are the other Graded races that day. To me, I would go after the money but Chad always has odds-on horses in higher graded races anyway so I don\'t think he really cares.

I don\'t get the frustration. If you like a hard copy you can order a card from any track from DRF at either $3.95 for classic PPs or $4.95 for Formulator PPs & print the thing out.  This isn\'t 1980 where you have to settle for what your local form has.  
I remember in 2009 before I started buying my PPs all on line I had to go down to Long Island the day before Spiral day at Turfway.  On my way home I figured I\'d pick up the Form & get Turfway PPs. I found out the Long Island PPs didn\'t have Turfway.  Then I went to the Meadowlands.  I got my TG sheets for Turfway there, but it wasn\'t in any of the Forms at their newsstands.  Then I tried when I got back home to Albany.  Still no Turfway. So I did the logical thing when I got home -I bought a 1 track card from DRF, printed it out, and started handicapping.
