People say Saratoga is the place to be,
On the weekends it's so crowed takes an hour to pee.
No more racing to get your table to proclaim your seat,
You just dig into your pocket gee what a "treat"
The bozos who are running the place,
Have turned Saratoga into a big disgrace.
Hopefully soon these clowns are out on there asses,
Charging outrageous prices for season passes.
I continue to go for the love of the horse,
Occasionally get a good tip from a reliable source.
Today's a great day to yell & cheer,
Of course while drinking an ice cold beer.

==========================================

I COULD NEVER 'EXCOMMUNICATE' SOMEONE AS WONDERFUL AS RQ

BUT HERE IS THE EXPLANATION SO EVERYONE HAS A CLEAR
UNDERSTANDING OF WHY DUSTY DOES NOT RUN FOR REPEAT TODAY

AS LONG AS THE CONTESTS HAVE BEEN RUNNING
THE REPEAT WINS ARE EACH IN THEIR OWN CATEGORY

2 IN A ROW IN MIDWEEK MAYHEM
2 IN A ROW IN SUPURRR SATURDAY

FOR YEAR END AWARDS PURPOSES ---
A PLAYER SCORING A WIN IN MM THEN SS DOES NOT QUALIFY
AS A "REPEAT" ---- OR GOING FOR A 3-PEAT

A 3- PEAT WINNER IN EITHER MM OR SS THEN
QUALIFIES AS NOMINEE FOR RACE OF THE YEAR
AS WELL AS AN INFLUENCE FOR OTHER AWARDS

HOPE THIS EXPLAINS WHY DUSTY IS NOT GOING FOR A REPEAT TODAY
SHE WILL BE ON WEDNESDAY

CIGARSHOP RUNS FOR THE REPEAT TODAY
