Weekend Wonders

Trying to adjust to Sunday steeplechasing. A free Saturday in October? We’ll make do. Time to get to the beach to celebrate Dad’s 90th birthday Sunday. We’ll enjoy the milestone Saturday and road trip to Foxfield Sunday. Rehoboth to Charlottesville? How far can it be? Noon post doesn’t help but at least we are in later races and at least it’s not same crowd as the spring carnival.

As for today, attention turns to Keeneland for Opening Day. The strong card includes the Phoenix, Jessamine and Alcibiades. Breeders’ Cup clues everywhere. Now I sound like the buildup to Cheltenham. Strong races in their own right, right? Right.

Saratoga stars Nakatomi, Totally Justified, The Queens M G and Immersive to name a few.

I played StableDuel for fun.

Saturday is even better. See you at the races. Sunday.
