Time for a family vacation break. Heading up to the Adirondacks for some R&R on Lake George. No horse racing up there this time of year. I will return on July 8, rested and ready for an exciting Saratoga meet.
Also, for those of you in the Albany-Saratoga region, I will be giving a presentation at the Town of Colonie library on Tuesday, July 9. Click here for a link to the Library calendar of events, including a Front Page description of my presentation.

I will be participating in a 2-day tournament this weekend. The format is to make a Win bet on a total of 20 races over two days. Prize money is then paid out based on total earnings accumulated from the wagers. So today I’ll be doing some handicapping and Saturday and Sunday … it’s fun time. So there won’t be any posts until early next week, when I’ll be sharing some of my tournament experience.
