8/17: Saratoga (Day 23)
A less than mediocre day of selections and wagering Saturday was made OK at least by the wionderful editions of the Sword Dancer and Alabama and Liz Gray's first win as a trainer (Obsequious in the 2nd). Strung together chalky on-top winners of the 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th, but that went to little good use when Weaver (whose horse continue to run well) upset the nightcap.
As I've suggested all meet on ATR, the Alabama will prove to be memorable for a long time as despite a small field PROUD SPELL displayed an unflagging run that should convert any remaining non-believers in her merits as a distaffer of the finest order... Alan Garcia notched another important Gr. I win a half hour earlier as Bobby Ribaudo's GRAND COUTURIER repeated as your Sword Dancer winner with a heady ride. The remarkable 9yo BETTER TALK NOW ran a quality 2nd... Finally, longtime Dale Romans' assistant LIZ GRAY got her first victory as a pro conditioner as Obsequious lit up the board in the 2nd against a very good field. Hope you had a good day. Del Mar with a $200,000 Carryover today and I will try to get a look at it later this morning from the Spa... Let's score out today!
