We must be talking about different days. Wonder Again didnt run that day.
All Hail Stormy won multiple times at Saratoga, so you must be referring to another time.

The day I am talking about, the last race should have never been run on the turf. It was a claiming race or cheap allowance. We got hit by a huge storm right before and during the running of the John's Call, won by Spanish Spur. The rain continued heavy for another 15-20 minutes, but they still ran that last race on an absolute bog. It was ridiculous. Only 1 horse in that last race did any sort of running and won by many lengths. Oh well, still a great day!

Glad marriage worked out for you! Its rare to hear these days.
