First I must apologize for the mix up with the main race, I did look earlier in the day and the December Gold Cup was my original idea of the main race. Then late on Thursday Night I looked again and it didn’t register that the race I picked was on Friday instead of Saturday. That’s my bad, thank you to those who took part this week.
