Was up there the year Sweet Ricky won it in 2001. I agree with Downthestretch, if you read the conditions good - you can make money there. The non winners lifetime I & II claimers and other conditions are now
being run downstate since P.J. Campo took over. That has spiced up winter racing in N.Y. Been up there only once they got VLT's though. If you have N.Y. breds and they can't cut it downstate, Finger Lakes is the place for you.
