Mind Control, 2018 Hopeful Stakes, John Velasquez.




Winners Circle. Get after it.

Thats me on the stairs , a friend in Boston caught me on the track feed. Funny




You have to have a plan. This is the
Hopeful on September 3rd , 2018, the crowd is slower than the Saturdays winners circle. It's not easy -walker/wheelchair can't do this.

Pick the race or horse you want to see in the WC , then stake out a winners circle spot immediately after the preceding race.

Does Steve Byk still do a show from Saratoga?

I spent a morning with him just watching him overcome huge odds to do his show. The technical stuff he was dealing with was terrible. 10 yrs or more since. Yet he got it done. Im guessing he has upgraded big time.

You will not meet a nicer guy and a bigger advocate for the game. If he is doing a show somewhere. Try to take it in. Or at least listen in the morning prior to or on the ride in.

Steve does the show from home. Has for years now. Back then, the show might have been on during the afternoon.

I think the show is Sunday, rather than Saturday, so not sure if that would work with CheckMark's plans, but Steve Byk has often co-hosted Capital OTB's weekly show from Saratoga with Seth Merrow. Also not sure if it is broadcast from a fan-accessible area.

Great ideas/thoughts from Suff Tom Ralph and Barch!

Suff I was trying to find those photos but thankfully you did thanks and yes I will try to find a good race to get "in" the winner circle for

Tom, I am on another forum where one of the handicappers in the Saratoga Special is on that forum which I find awesome so yes will definitely try to find a stand where I can get my hands on a copy

Ralph and Barch I will try to get a chance to see him if I can find the time

Quick question for Suff

The tipsheet sellers who you have in the photos are from the Clubhouse side is there other spots where they sell these

And are those the only sheets they have for Wizard/Trackfacts/The Irish Horse/The Lady Outisde? I will be doing my own selections but just wanted to pick up a few for collecting on my 1st trip to Toga

Now that's an upgrade from two ISDN lines in a tiny booth.

Thanks.......

Are you nuts or acting nuts because you're excited about going to Saratoga?

Probably both just asking a simple question if they sell anywhere else and if there are any other sheets besides the ones in the photos

I texted them, and I told them not to sell you anything. No tips for checkmark.
