The race you describe above was my biggest score all of last year as well. I was at Saratoga a few weeks later and went to the barn area to see Lloyd (then Harold) only to find that he was still at Belmont. Paul Barone was extremely nice to us and when I told him about how Tutti Va Benne had made my summer, he surprised us by telling us that she was arriving any minute to their barn for a race the next day. They let us wait around so I could meet my new favorite horse and get some pictures. I have yet to meet Gary but his staff is all class.
Even better, Tutti Va Benne is in today in the 9th race. Perhaps a good omen...
