Some of my best recent memories watching Saratoga would be Gabby and TLG on talking horses and the tractor keeps driving by. I always look for that thing.

You look for the trailer instead of looking at Gabby ( or even TLG for that matter).

In the words of fellow Queens icon, Archie Bunker...." Are you some kind of prevert?"

I think that's a good point. Having said that I don't listen to them anymore. I don't like hearing that I'm an fool if I pick a certain horse. The turning point was this summer when the paddock expert described my single in the upcoming race as "practically emaciated." What are you supposed to do with that observation? Luckily I ignored it and the horse won by the length of the track.
