Thank goodness. Between having vans full of horses drive by me on the way to work and seeing Curlin on the front page of the Times Union, I am ready for the meet to begin!

Jim Dandy Sunday with Street Sense...how can you not be there?

I agree! What a great opening weekend, I am so excited! The only downfall is I have to miss twilight Friday for a wedding. Who in their right mind gets married on opening weekend of Saratoga?!?!?

I now have an audition on Monday the 30th for which I have to prep so I may not be coming. I'm trying to convince myself I could manage coming up just for Saturday.... I'll check the train schedules.

Like I said, I'll still try to come for Saturday, if I can. Depends on when I schedule work with a vocal coach. If it's not on Saturday, I'm there.

Did you check the AMTRACK schedule yet for departure times from Manhattan?

Let me know as I'm interviewing a candidate Thursday for an open position on my staff. If she takes it, I might be able to make SAR that weekend also. I'll let her cover my sport assignments that weekend if I can get her on board that quickly!

There is a train that departs at 7:45, arriving 11:16, and one leaving from Saratoga at 7:07, arriving back at 10:45 (same schedule Saturday and Sunday, I believe). I may switch my reservation and do that.

Fingers crossed your interviewee takes the job!

Ha. I'm missing the Friday/Saturday due to a wedding as well.

I'll be there with bells on Sunday.

Okay, I'm still coming for Saturday, anyway. Sooo bummed to miss Street Sense on Sunday, but 'dem's de breaks. I'm sure the company on Saturday will more than make up for it.

I'll be there....just found out my husband arranged a surprise weekend.

This is my first visit, so PLEASE, can I get advice about how to get clubhouse seats, see the training track, whether or not to go to the breakfast and tours that I read about on the Toga site? What are the best parties after the races?

Also, where's everyone meeting up? This will be my first time meeting anyone, except Genuinerisk, so I won't be able to just recognize anyone.

Thanks for any advice and help.
