I got so caught up in the day I never stopped over.
We were there to celebrate the life of Alice Shea, who passed away earlier this year. She was a great woman who loved Saratoga, King's Tavern, poker and spending time with her family and friends at the Spa.
The weather was great, the filly broke the track record in the "Alice Shea Memorial" and a small group us turned a nice profit late in the 7th, 8th and 9th with group place, show and finally a win wager on the one to end it and cap off the day strong! Tim Richey was DUE!
I'll be there all next week - Wed thru Sunday - and hopefully will get to meet what seems to be a great, great group of racing fans.
