The Future

You may have noticed I have changed the theme of Gradedstakes.com since last week. I believe the new theme is better looking, and more flexible. However, I’m still figuring things out and it isn’t easy. I’ve got a friend helping me work it out, so expect a more full experience by next week.

I’ve got many things planned for this summer that most of you are going to like. I’m going to try and do more interviews with trainers, jockeys, and other relevant industry insiders. I’m also looking to create more history type articles such as “Almost Immortal I+II”. You can also look out for more ranking articles like “Top 5 Jockeys”. I’m also improving my handicapping skills by reading books such as “Bet with the Best” which is written by several of the nations top handicappers. Expect selections that are even better then the ones you are already getting! I’m also thinking of recording myself giving the picks, and uploading the video.

As far as Gradedstakes.com as a community goes, I am thinking about added a message board. I encourage everyone to comment, but this would allow for a better discussion between everyone. You can also expect a “poll” in the near future. The last addition I would like to mention would be handicapping contests. In the near future, I would like to begin have handicapping contests for small prizes, and small amounts of cash. Make you sure you check back so you test your skills against mine!

That’s about all I have to say for now. As always I thank you for reading. Make sure to keep checking back, and if you have any suggestions, or comments please email them to me at loyaluntildeath@yahoo.com. I’ll close with the following. Curlin forever, Big Brown never!
