I was at the paddock wall and Steve looked jovial and relaxed as he saddled his horses. My dark iPhone photo of his horse who placed: ![]() I was there for the 6th, 7th, and 8th as Russell Baze rode a five bagger. The track Bugler played "Taste of Honey" twice while I was there, so pretty sure Herb Alpert was in attendance. Ranger Heartley seemed to be the sentimental favorite in the paddock crowd. Connemara is a handsome horse. My score that took my wife to dinner was going heavy on the Baze-Hollendorfer chalk in the 8th. The sauteed calimari with the Coppola Claret was great! |

![]() Even though I have no respect at all for Connemara ... I did use him in that Road to the Roses thingy because he looked like a cinch to win today's race for easy points - and I had already installed him as the early favorite for the Grade 2 Lexington Stakes two weeks before the Derby.
Ah, the Lexington! .... A race won by such standouts as Advice, Behindatthebar, and Slew's Tizzy in it's 3 lifelong runnings over KEE's synthetic track. Does it get any suckier than those 3 horses? |

Yep. The only track I've attended where the paddock is trackside near the finish line and in what I think is clear view for most attendees in the grandstand. Bay Meadows, and the indoor paddock by the betting windows is pretty hard for me to trump.....in my book though... Gone, as Bay Meadows may be. On a more positive note, the best view in my humble from Golden Gate Fields is from outside the Club House towards the valet lot. An obstructed view of Sausalito, The Golden Gate Bridge.... and with a good angle... The City By The Bay.... Perhaps Tony Bennett and others, agree.
