Much of the HorseTourneys crew will hit the road this weekend to work The BIG One at Laurel Park. Thanks to a couple of $7,000 buy-in entries the field stands at 54 with only three buy-in seats remaining. As exciting as this competition will be with $100,000 in cash, eight BCBC seats and 10 NHC […]
