Its at Saratoga.

It's called the "Oklahoma" training track, it's across the street from the track. A lot of trainers like to use it as it's deeper than the main track and they feel their horses get fitter.

Two years ago, I parked across the street, right beside the training track.
I set up my chair and cooler, and it was the 5th race before I realized I was at the wrong track. I wondered why there such a small crowd for such a nice day.

You're not being serious, I hope?

Having just gotten back from Saratoga, it would've been much cheaper for me to do this. :(
