Ready for Takeoff!<\/p><\/div>\n

Temperamental birdies! In this instance, because their root system is restrained by the confines of the potting, they bloom only sporadically. We are awaiting an appearance shortly! <\/p>\n

Take heart, East Coast. You’ll be getting our warm weather by Sunday, temps in the mid-60s°F over there. Pass the tanning butter!<\/p>\n

Free<\/a> ones<\/strong>: Rundown…<\/p>\n

Today’s Stakes Pageantry<\/strong>: Man, they like running the third race of the day at the Big A as a stakes race! Today, we would have been suckered into the hapless #6 Geaux Mets as a Triple Threat Horsey. No good, Eddie Kranepool, no good, Kennie Boswell, no good, Bob Apodaca!<\/p>\n
