The Whitney was finally run with a popular result when Diversify ran another “Tour d’ Force” with Mind Your Biscuits doing very well in the chasing position.  This race was a bit “crazy” when a storm cell came into Saratoga with a full array of STORMY CONDITIONS… Bolts of Lightning and ran that came in horizontal kept the horses in the stable area for an extended period… and the track was turned for FAST (amazing after last night’s rain) into a SEALED and SLOPPY surface.

And the NYRA seemed clairvoyant when they canceled the 10th and 11th at the outset on Saturday morning.  If they had kept the races as carded, they would have both been rained off the turf.  Both The Waya and The Lure were really nice races and it will be in our favor – if weather permits – to wait to try to crack these nuts…

We also saw some pretty fantastic affairs and it should be noted that UNI and PRECIEUSE put on an amazing show with one of the most breathtaking stretch runs in recent memory… and then Mia Mischeif and Separationofpowers came together before they came off the turn and races head to head in a fantastic effort, while dissing the rest of the field…  just great stuff…
