Default 8/11: Saratoga (Day 18)

First half of meet ends today after another weather struggle Sunday. Never had chance to adjust to changes, and the major deluge which scuttled the 5th off the turf created P4/P3 turmoil, and consternation, for many. Anxious to get through another wet day today as the rest of the week, and Alabama Weekend, look far more promising. For all whose work is connected to the track, the weather havoc has been arduous, as have the increasingly burdensome daily 10 & 11 race cards.


SARATOGA RACE COURSE


Expect to be off turf today and will wait to see the changes before tabbing the 4th, 6th, 8th, 10th.

They are off the turf... scratches not up yet though.
What an unfortunate first half of the meet this has been with the weather...

Changes reflected.. Rain stopped after about a half hour. Nice crowd has filled in the backyard pretty well considering...

G/L all!

Played an early pk4 hoping to beat one of the short favorites:

2- 1,2,4
3- 1,3,5
4- 7,9
5- 1,2,7,8

Backed up with a 2/3/9/2,7 for $5. Good luck today!

Good luck Pointman. I didn't get home in time for the pick 4, but I have time for pick 3's and the late pick 4.

Race 3 - $20 Pick 3 Wheel
3-5/9/2 - $40

I am done wagering on that 2 horse. This is the 3rd time I have lost money on him. NO MORE for me...this means that he will win next out.
