A few (maybe several) (maybe 10 - 15) years back they did run a few mile dirt races at Saratoga....The inside post positions had a major major advantage..

I said I was wrong about the dates dickmunch. You acted like there was no such thing as a mile race at Saratoga.

You know nothing about horseracing. Keep placing your dollar show bets and please keep wowing us with your lack of knowledge. You have done nothing on here except tell everybody else there wrong. Dont see you throwing anyfacts up here to be disputed.

When is the last time they ran a mile on the dirt at Saratoga?


Yea that question was posed in "have they ever?" All I said was that they could accomodate a mile race. So when you pose that question it is as if they never have.

FYI, I just changed the wikipedia entry...

How's your "wiki-proof" now!

Anyone who uses wikipedia to prove a fact needs to have their head examined.

The reason they stopped running it was cause they found they couldn't adequately accomodate a mile race. Technically every track could accomodate every distance just like you technically could have a race on the inner turf at Saratoga with 400 horses in it.

It appears so.

But it looks like you're doing your best to bring it over into this one.

I don't know the argument, but anyone who post something off Wikipedia and tries to claim they know they are right because Wikipedia said so needs some help.

I quoted from a book of Saratoga. It proved that I was wrong not right. I said they last ran a mile race a Saratoga in the late 90s. It was the early 90s. I posted it to prove to Hoss that they did run mile races at Saratoga.

Well, Wikipedia is right here... early 90's, like I said, when I was 15.

This has officially become the dumbest argument ever.

It's like New Years Eve on Rush Street...they are really coming out of the woodwork today

I liked the thread, I was the first to add a stupid question, and it was something I asked myself.
