Weekend at Saratoga

A great weekend in Saratoga was had .Started of with the lively Westpoint party Friday night which was full of energy after a maiden win for Encore Saritta and big hopes for Macho in the Whitney . Fantastic to catch up with partners, old friends and make some new friends . Followed by a few drinks at The Parting Glass ......

Saturday morning Tina and I went to the seminar held by Fasig -Tipton and the refurbished sales center .It was alive with keen sellers showing off their horses and many buyers frantically making notes in their sales books . Their were a couple of hips we really liked Hip 145 a Dynaformer/Hard to Copy Colt that went unsold . The second was from an Australian sire Hip200 Encosta De Lago(Aus)/Nicole and Krista (Ire) which sold for $500.000.00 to Bob Bafferts agent . Then across the road to the track to catch up with the WestPointers and make a couple of $$$$ at the windows ... Weekends like this go on the prove this is the greatest sport to be involved in and why Saratoga is a must go to place for any race fan
