Default 8/19: Saratoga (Day 28-Union Avenue)

Always a special day when your team wins a race and getting 'your picture took' at Saratoga is a further enhancement of the experience. My Pal of Pals moved forward Sunday off what amounted to an exercise run a week before and scored at 7-1 in the 4th. Junior Alvarado, a source of frustration in the previous try, rode an exceptional race on the City Zip colt, avoiding a possible inquiry by holding Pal together when he tried to lug in at the sixteenth pole after taking the lead. In addition to the $16.40 win tote, Pal tripped a $35.50 exacta with 2nd choice Freud's Debut and $248.50 triple with Spirit of Peace with his second career win. Thanks to Gary & Paul and their staff, Junior, the partners and everyone who was rooting along. It was another memorable day at the old Spa. Hope everyone did well!

Steve, congrats on the Natural early PK4. A couple of lobsters to end the card blew many tickets up.

The lady doing the national anthem today forget a few lines. That can't happen at Toga. Get someone in there who knows the words.

THX Gus.. Was a fun day. Hope everyone got something before those odd winners jumped in at the end of the card.

Did you hear her? It was off key as well but that's not even what I'm talking about. 3 different lines messed up. C'mon now.

no I didn't, but I couldn't resist the Francis Scott Key reference. National Anthem stuff is great. Marvin Gaye did that spectacular one. Whitney Houston killed it. One of my faves was in Boston, when after the fans in Montreal booed the American version unmercifully, 2 days later when the habs came to town, the loud standing ovation for the Canadian National anthem even had the Canadian players scratching their heads. Don Cherry was in his glory. Jennifer Hudson in the Super Bowl was the most profitable as she came through with the over at a generous price of 3-2, after losing family members in a tragedy. She sang for them and it was awesome.
