![]() Thoroughly spectacular day at SAR Saturday with the racing, weather, crowd and everything else as close to perfect as it gets. Featured Whitney lived up to promise with thrilling rally by Honor Code that snatched the laurels from Liam's Map who ran as remarkable a race as a horse can without winning. Honor Code answered the two turn question with authority, but also confirmed that a heated pace scenario is paramount to his best chances given that the opening half mile here going the two turn mile and an eighth was identical to that in the one turn Met Mile. Cavorting efficiently dispatched her foes in the Test while maiden winner Economic Model led what looks like a very good group of 2yo's in the 3rd with Set the Trappe and Star Hill are not long for the maiden ranks. So much great action again Saturday, but on to Sunday.. Hope everyone enjoyed and did well!

![]() Thanks Tanner.. Was really the first 'air from balloon' day where the house seemed a bit exhausted from the huge Saturday. First card of the the meet to get every winner somewhere which is always nice. Still tricky getting all of them on big multi tix. Hope everyone did well!
