I asked a number of times if they would write a long race and was always told yes. I guess NYRA thinks that Saratoga fans do not want to watch old horses running long in Saratoga.
Maybe next year or the following year when he is 11 or 12 they may write a 10F or longer race race.
I'm glad I'm not the only one the Racing Office says yes to, but really means no, when I ask them to put on a race.
