And of course Fox has to screw everything up to show college football! They’ve put it on the app but I don’t want to watch on my friggin phone, I psy good money for that station on my cable!:(

Fox treats horse racing like the wicked stepsister- just do any old thing they want to do- put it on FS2- then switch to FS1- then stop it all together and put on football or any other sport- doesn't matter what it is, and then put horse racing back on  Fox after 20 minutes of football.

Ugh!!!!

John Imbriale will retire from Saratoga as track announcer, Frank Mirahmadi will take over next year

So happy it was at Saratoga.  Bittersweet win.

The Lieutenant has a runner at Saratoga today in the 7th, a MSW for 2yr olds, NY bred.  Name:  Lt. Mitchell.  Love it when the breeder is also the owner and that is Perretti.  Trainer is Levine.

Safe racing to all today.
