Wow…such passion and apparent love of the game. Only one problem with your scenario — they don’t run 6 furlong turf races at Saratoga, they are only 5 1/2 furlongs. Better get your head on straight or else the contest will be over in week 1. I’ll call you today.

I can see it already —Race #2 – one mile & 1/16 on the turf all first-time starters (Mott, Pletcher, Clement, Voss….etc.) Race #4 5 & 1/2 on the dirt all firsters, but wait the next great one! 3-5 down the drain!!!!!! Then throw in at least two 6F on the turf and you have a typical card at the SPA! I can’t wait for the best 6 weeks of the year to begin! Good luck to all….

what a great and well written article-saratoga has indeed broken many hearts with photo finishes often going the wrong way-the upcoming meet figures to be a real barn burner with challenges galore but lets hope every close finish and every run away winner goes our way-let the games begin and good luck to all—
