Yes it is George. That is looking from the East Avenue end of the Oklahoma, directly across from Fasig-Tipton. Google Street View

I was expecting maybe a different photo today, given your prior practice. Maybe one featuring a certain trainer??? LOL
BTW, on my very first visit to Saratoga, Travers Day 1993, we parked at the Oklahoma track.

Race 1 - #1a - Global Freedom. Love this jump race today. Looks like a 4 horse race today and while there won't be any giant prices, I just need to pick correctly at the windows. Picking here will be tougher. :-) The four are Anticipating, Critical Data, Global Freedom and Fast Car.
Anticipating faced as good a N2L as you'll see on the NSA circuit and was right there in a FAST pace. Forget the "weakened" comment. Anticipating was shuffled a bit when the leader called it a day and it was right when the others were making a move. He repassed a few of those and finished strong, considering the hot pace.
Critical Data stalked the leader in a race that was run at a much slower pace than Anticipating's race on the same day. He fought the rider a bit with the pace being so slow, but looked beasty when he was cut loose and has the flat speed needed on the modified hurdle course since they don't jump the final jump. Looked really fit and can easily win this.
Global Freedom looked great at 3 at Far Hills and was full of run at Great Meadow when his rider lost her stirrups going over the water jump. One jump later, she bounced off. I think he can wire this group and I think he's going to be the best price out of these 4.
Fast Car. Held up early and finished very strongly in his win at GrM. He really filled out from 3 to 4 and looked super fit in his last.
Race 2 - #1 Big Al's Gal. Drops and switches to the dirt. Awful race today and her dirt works are good. Race 6 - #6 Thebigfundamental. Not sure why I'm picking against Mott on his birthday, but I think this layoff horse looks sharp from his works and can outfinish these if he's ready.

It's Bill Mott's birthday and I didn't include his runner in race 6. Good luck to madameblum and gam who were astute enough to play the "Bill Mott always has a winner on his birthday" angle.
I have to try a different approach to avoid domestic strife. My father-in-law was known to all as Al, was a large man, and although he passed away before I met my wife, he sounds like a man who was a great father with a great sense of humor - he certainly imparted that sense of humor in his daughter. It has helped very much over the years. So, I must include
Race 2: Big Al's Gal
and
Race 2: Belleza

To be sure, Billy doesn't always win on his birthday, but I've had a few winners in this contest and in real wagers (once Billy's horse anchored a nice p4 for me) paying heed to this angle. SInce he only had the one today, it was an easy decision to use him. I'm 0-fer for this contest, however, so if Lone Rock fails, Billy can blame me. LOL
