Well, when I ditched AOL--like all sane people have done--that pretty much cut off those boards (although you can get to them now) and I just didn't hook up elsewhere. Also, I just play the horses less than I used to--I've been busy with other bad habits.
Steve/Rog told me about this place.
Saratoga is unlikely this year (although I've been there 2 of the last 3 years)--I'm heading up to the Belmont. That will be the first TC race I've ever been to (although I've been to an even dozen BCs). The Derby is too much of a zoo (I hate CD anyway), and Pimilico is a total dump from all I've heard. But Belmont I like--so I have to root for SS in the Preakness to have a possible TC on the line.
This is my advice about Saratoga--I know how you are about crowds: avoid the weekends, ESPECIALLY the Travers weekend. It is just too much of a zoo.
Weekdays are the ticket.
It's a cool place. Keeneland is my favorite, but Saratoga is up there.
