Once again....these horses all ran before horses bounced.
Until my first trip to the Spa for A & A's Travers, I had little interest in racing. I loved Saratoga so much I returned the next weekend for the Hopeful. General Assembly won. I think Tim was second and Fuzzbuster third. BTW, you are right about the Cowdin. GA went off at 1/10. With my one month of experience in horse racing, I bet $100 to win on GA. I credit him with teaching me an early lesson about horses that pay a dime on the dollar. They DO lose. In the Champagne, I think GA was 1/2 to Bid's 2.40/1.
