(I did not look at the Almanac for wind, which can be a factor, but I recall the last three days.)

The 50-degree day was comfortable enough, I thought, with abundant sunshine.

The last time was cold, no doubt.

Thank you for that.

I was more asking what the other criticisms were because of your wording...

I've heard the attendance thing too with regard to Belmont, but that is ridiculous. There were more people at Belmont in 2001 and 2005 than there were on the Saturdays in 2003 (SA), 2004 (LS) and 2008 (SA). There were roughly the same amount there those days as there were in 2012 and 2013 at SA too.

Well I don't get why they haven't tried to get it the past how ever many years but I sure hope that they do again cause it was the greatest.
