Over the river

Well, it's a great weekend ahead for horseplayers. Unfortunately, I'm going to be on the road for almost the entire weekend. We're heading down to Connecticut for my girlfriend's grandmother's birthday extravaganza, and then swinging by my parents for a father's day celebration. But, don't worry, The Handicapping Life will return next week with its usual panache.

Yet, your visit to this blog doesn't have to be a total loss. Now's a great time to check out my column at Trackchampion. This week's entry, "The line, or Balance is not just a 3-year old filly," just appeared yesterday:
