It was built in 1870 and has more atmosphere than any of the NY tracks
and it was especially pleasant with the fall foliage
It had been a leader's track all day, and in coming into the 9th race, a restricted handicap over 1600m, I liked the look of the topweight with the odd name "W.W.'s Lady's Man". As you can see, he is a powerfully built three year old, looking fit and ready to run. He had been unplaced last start, but didn't have the best of runs and before that had led all the way, so I figured if he could reporduce that today he had a big chance given how he looked, and he was paying $10 for the win, so it was a very attractive bet...
... and he did exactly as i expected, led all the way and killed 'em winning by about 6 lengths, returning $198 for $20. It was good to see I had not lost my old touch!
