    Well, you can't go to Saratoga Springs, NY without visiting the race track.  Some of us ladies took the tour of the Saratoga Springs Race Track, the Paddocks, the training barns and the racing museum.  Even though the racing season was officially over, there were still plenty of horses stabled there for us to view.  They were doing some training runs, and the horses looked magnificent.


     


    I wonder if it's possible to spoil a horse rotten?  Each horse had several people waiting on it hoof and foot.  There were jockeys, hot walkers, groomers, trainers . . . and all so these beautiful creatures can run so the humans can see who runs fastest.

  • I love to watch the races. I could stay broke $ very easy going to the races but I don't live near any track. It's a good thing.

  • I don't gamble . . . in fact, I've never been to a race, but I thoroughly enjoyed looking at the horses at the practice track.

  • I found your comment on Alice's blog very enlightening.  It said much!  LOL  Have a good sister-trip.

  • Thoroughbreds are beautiful horses. Mike

  • I love to watch the horses run. We used to love going to Ruidoso to the races. I don't gamble either (had to work to hard all my life to gamble) on the horses or the lottery. :nono:  They are so beautiful when they are running full out. One of our customers raised thoroughbreds and had a good record of wins at Ruidoso. I really do think they can get spoiled just like my babies are. :)
