I haven't been able to watch as much as I'd like cuz my job got in the way, so maybe I missed all the highlights, but geez....the Saratoga pizzazz I normally feel was just....missing...I even made a little money for a change this year, so that's not the reason....anybody else feel the same way?

The weather, while generally good, often had a way of being bad at the wrong times...like today for instance, allowing Alpha to win the Woodward ?

I'm not complaining, mind you...just sorta disappointed

Let the hating begin....who knows - it might make me feel better knowing I was wrong

Maybe instead of focusing on the negative you could try remembering and looking for the good in things.

If your expectations are too high you'll always be a little disappointed.

Just accept things... be happy for Saratoga next year but don't act like Santa is going to bring you a pony cause chances are he's not.
