Maybe two hours late! Who knows! Time is a construct!

So my 'events' schedule DOES say 3am (ET)....our clocks switch over for daylight savings at 2am (which automatically makes it 3am) so I am assuming that's when gallops open for us in daylight savings? Otherwise it would technically open at 4am Eastern.

That's what it did last time, though that was the fall back and not the spring forward.

this yearly ritual (the begging strip) is almost better than Festivus itself. It comes with no disappointments.

We get to look forward to seeing which of our mares or stallions are barren and which of our coming yearlings are injured around 2pm central time. Which can be a mix of extreme relief and happiness or one that is sad and disappointing. Then 12 hours later we get to go on that roller coaster ride of emotions again when we start galloping our yearlings, where we will either be extremely happy or lookng to clear out our training barn and sending some broodmares with those yearlings.

I thought Daylights Savings happened on Sunday and gallops open at 2am Saturday morning CST... shows much how much I know.
