The quality of the fields at Saratoga is improved as compared to the regular NYRA circuit because of the outside outfits. NY breds may fill out the cards and are great for owners but a negative at a meet like Saratoga. Without the outside outfits, Saratoga would just be Belmont North. Not to mention that shipping up and down the highway doesnt seem to bother the NY trainers that stable most of their better horses in Saratoga the rest of the Spring, summer and fall and ship to run at the downstate meets.
