9/5: Saratoga (Closing Day; Hopeful/Glens Falls)
Enjoyed big snapback Sunday from lousy Saturday with early quad hit and second big Jim Baker score of the week. Heart of Destiny received a fearless ride by Edgar Prado in the deep 6th race, and nosed out the 'can't lose' Chad Brown debuter Pianist for a $32.60 win tote that tripped handsome exotics and multis.
It was a great way to end what has been an outstanding meet from every perspective. I'll be back later after the scratches with a spot play or two and perhaps the late P4, but with a messy situation after driving rains all night, am quite content to end the season on yesterday's high notes. I hope everyone has enjoyed the live ATR coverage of Saratoga '11, and hasdone well at the windows with the suggestions I've offered. Steve 1st, 5th, 6th, 11th are OFF the turf. Ecclesiastic S. (8th) + Glens Falls H. (10th) remain ON the soft lawn..
