I hate that rule, but it helped Pat and I today. The 4 was the favorite in the 8th until the last minute when the 5 took a lot of money. I have to guess the payout was so good since the 2 was likely heavily singled on tickets today and the 4 must have been lightly used. I am guessing it was the 8th that produced the nice payout today.

I was at Belmont today and have to say these twilight Fridays are a great idea. There was a nice size crowd out in the back area today and people were having a really great time, not sure why they wouldn't do twilight Fridays through Saratoga, sure most people around Saratoga are there for the racing, but I would think they would still get bigger crowds and a lot of college kids.

I am also not sure why they turned off racing from other tracks on the TV's and closed also simulcast wagering right after the last race despite a band about to play, possibly they have to stop at a certain time due to wagering rules, but the people I were with were upset because they wanted to play other tracks.
