The same value is at Charles Town as it is at Saratoga!

I never bet a track in the first few weeks of the season. I hate trying to bet a race of 8 horses that raced at 6 different tracks in their last race.
Oops, did I say hate? I meant I don't do it. I don't care how trendy a track is, I don't bet it unless it has a season long enough for the horses and trainers to get settled in and race against each other and establish a record. I have looked at Saratoga often over the years, but I can't remember betting there.
I love blue collar tracks. Months long seasons and a good solid base of predictable trainers and honest claiming horses establishing a credible record of performance.
