Weather sucks here at Saratoga.
« on: June 07, 2025, 11:39:09 AM »
All the years of going to the races, I've never been a big fan of rain. Just kind of dreary and rainy here at "The Spa". Most people inside keeping dry. Some people who didn't bring rain slickers are soaked. Track looks like soup. I just hit the 2nd race with a 1st time starter for Bill Mott. I'm hoping the weather "breaks" alittle the track dries out a little. Off the turf for the 3rd race.

Thanks. I think the crowd is smaller than track officials had hoped. Still people coming in. Two stakes races cancelled until Sunday. I'm taking a flyer on #1 with Dylan Davis who had a big day yesterday. Lots of scratches on card.

Thanks! I was never a big winner with Linda Rice horses. I skipped the 4th. I figured the chalk would win. You gotta bet here early so I just put $10Win $40Place on Bill Mott's #8. I've hit both the races I played so far. Going for the "Hat Trick". LOL!
