Well, we had a great day on Saturday. Fortunately, the rain stopped about 45 minutes before the first race, which made things a little more manageable, but the place was still a muddy mess.

Dictina's Boy came home an easy 7 1/4 length winner. It came as a bit of a surprise, since he has never really gone well on soft ground. Despite what the chart says, it was definately on the softish-side of good. His jumping was excellent and Xavier Aixpuru gave him a fantastic ride.

Otherwise, attendence was a little off (35,000), but the worst part of the day was the NJ Racing Commission putting the kibosh on wagering via simulcast/AWDs. It is something that the NSA is going to have to workout for the future. This was an excellent card to bet with a lot of non-preferred horses winning, including ours. I'm sure we would have been in double-digits, which would have made our day a little more profitable.
