A question on Easy Goer...

Tell me the year, I'll tell you the winner of the Whitney.

1993-Brunswick
1994-Colonial Affair
1995- Unaccounted For

Those would be the years that Cigar was racing.

My guess is 1994, he ran on the grass and lost before switching to dirt and starting that incredible run.

Kelso, so lick me.

I only knew that because I knew kelso won three times, one year apart, in '61, '63, and '65.

For good measure I checked his PP's, he didn't even run on Whitney Day. i got my license that day, i was right about that, August 1st, 1994. He ran the next Saturday... and finished 3rd on the turf. The SPAC concert was August 2nd, 1994. God was i a stupid kid back then. My mother would have maimed me if she had known i had driven all the way to Saratoga and back, i think i told her we were going camping in the finger lakes!

moral of the story: never, EVER, debate Blackthroatedwind about Saratoga results. well done my man.

Really? I have gone to that site 1000 times, but never knew that.
If he had asked for say like '62, I woulda said I have no idea.

You can do cool stuff too like search for stakes where the winner's sire was Buckpasser.

One can learn some very useful things playing late night racing trivia on the old TT's forum.

Probably won't be down there again until the Wood...you'll be delighted to know I've been working up the ladder on the Degen Levels in the meantime.

If the Gotham comes up interesting enough then it would be a possibility. Otherwise the Wood.

Sure, go to the home page, select Stakes Races in the Reports menu, in search for races where the name " " select race name, tab to the next blank and type in the name of the stakes race. Research on!

You would use Buckpasser as your example!

uh oh, i've taken a few steps back in the fall lull so you might be ahead of me right now :P

however, saturday's conversation with mom: "ma, it's the last big day at aqueduct. sorry i gotta run" mom: "what time is your race?" me: "2:30 is the remsen" mom [looks at watch, sees 2:10] "you might not make it to finger lakes in time, you should go to the OTB down the block" me: "remember who's driving!"

i made it, of course!

You make me proud! Who was the dummy who scheduled the Malibu for a Tuesday? I have to work. ( I know, it's always the 26th, but they could make an exception!)
