Better racing???? You have gone mad. SAratoga has the best racing anywhere on the planet. Now, the seeting of Del Mar is much better.

They could hold the Saratoga meet in the middle of Idaho and it would be better than Del Mar.

Who cares where the setting is? If they paved out a racetrack at our local dump and had the quality that they do at Saratoga, I would be there for sure.

I think someone is suffering from delusions due to the excessive heat.
Each location has its strong points, but for the racing quality you've got to go with the Spa.

I have been to both and the racing at Saratoga is far superior to Del Mar. Del Mar is a better time overall because of the city it is located in, but the racing at the spa is just better. The weather though goes to DelMar in a landslide. Only the Keeneland meet is comparble, and Saratoga is still a little better than Keeneland.

I live an hour north of Del Mar.. never have been to Saratoga.

As a horse player.. I'll take Saratoga every time..
For a good time.. You'd be hard pressed to find a better place than Del Mar. It is awesome.
