Um .... I did.

Nice try, Wing :D

Guys just have to go with Universal Horseman's Attire ... khakis and a shirt.

panties are optional... ive seen the proof:eek:

Gimme A Break! Dress Code At A Race Track? Sounds Like The Snobs Found Only In The Turf Club.................

Talk to the guys about that, will ya? ;)

I will be there that weekend also. I was just hoping to catch a glimpse of her before the big day.

On Chuck's blog, he mentions where Sumwon is going to be stabled at Saratoga. I've always had an easy time visiting Sumwon in the morning. Chuck and his crew have always been very friendly.

I'm planning on being at Saratoga on the week-end Sumwon is supposed to run. Hopefully, the race fills and is run. But we won't know that until the Friday before (I'll probably already be on my way to the airport). Oh well, I've always wanted to see Saratoga....

whats the dress code for the bbq.? same as the clubs or winners circle?

Unstable: I'll be there on the 4th and 5th. I'll be sitting in Section M, Row O, seats 7-11. I should have an empty seat for you. Looking forward to seeing you then.

Do you have to get reserve seating there? I was hoping to just do Grand stand and hang out at the paddock

Rail is always open if that is your thing. :)

Bob, I'll stop by. It sure seems like a long time since Keeneland, where you were the first partner I met.

If you aren't scared of the sun or benches then you can always sit for free out front near the rail. There are also tons of picnic tables near Carolina BBQ that should be the DT hangout spot.

Looks like I am going to be moving soon.. could make the trip difficult.

I will have to wait until the last minute to decide to make the trip. Is there a place to stay west of Saratoga/ Albany that you would recomend.
anywhere I should avoid on the 16 hour DRIVE over.

Where you coming from and how far west of Albany would you want to stay?

coming from central Illinois. eventually end up on I-90

and I would like to stay close but not necessarily in Albany

I drive 45 mins from the Spa (Fonda), I'm sure you could a nice motel in the Johnstown/Gloversville area, 40 mins from the Spa.

I don't know of any spots that are bad to be on I-90, the drive through PA and western NY is wicked boring though.

Like HHH said the Johnstown/Gloversville area is about 40 minutes west. Utica is a little over an hour west, Syracuse about two hours west, and Rochester a little over three.

Thanks..

umm. I live in corn country
there is nothing but flat roads and corn

Then you'll feel right at home in on the Thruway until you hit Herkimer.

The "Sand Flats" is corn country in the valley!
