8/29 Saratoga (Day 33; Saratoga Dew; 6th-9th)
Wonderful Travers Day was followed by unique hurricane experience Sunday that shuttered the Spa and much of the Eastern Seaboard. On the heels of a lucrative Alabama Day a week ago, was able to negotiate the stakes laden card successfully with particular exception of one mistake in the Ballston Spa that left a lot of money on the table. Building to what looked like a very big day via juicy P3's in the card's first half and an excellent $167 exacta with Miss Netta & Yellow Boat in the 5th, I watched helplessly as Daveron eclipsed Tapitsfly in the day's first added-money event. A bad opinion of the Motion-Team Valor winner cost the $1,700 (.50) P4 and stopped every other P3 ticket as well.
Handsome $16 on Hot Summer in the Victory Ride got the ball rolling again, and the $363 late P4 came our way, but the foul tip on the middle quad stuck in my mind late into Saturday evening despite finishing up significantly on the afternoon. Caleb's Posse winning the King's Bishop over noble Uncle Mo was thrilling, and Stay Thirsty's Travers effort was exceedingly gutsy given his attendance to the pace. Hope everyone did really well and enjoyed the day! Bit of a crazy few days ahead as I have to head to NYC after today's ATR and then to Boston after Tuesday's edition. Monster $341k Del Mar carryover for Wednesday to anticipate too as both summer havens enter their final week...

I had no parimutuel interest in first race, but how did they take the second place finisher down?
