When you are at the track live, how is it possible to watch the race when all the horses have the same saddle-cloth color? It is distracting enough on TV when you have to divert your attention to the chicklets but live must be impossible.

I bring binoculars and use them until they turn for home, then take peeks at their video screen as it has the chiclets too. That's with a seat, without one it would be tough.

I assume you are talking about the Stakes races, they have the different color saddle clothes on all races except the Stakes races.

Refuse to play the often random result races that their surface throws so the answer to your question is yes, the stakes.
