Off to the Spa
In just a few minutes, I’ll be on my way north for Travers weekend. Despite the late start, I plan to get to the track in time for today’s Ballston Spa Handicap, which drew a field of nine, including smashing Diana winner My Typhoon, in foal Iron Goddess, and Todd Pletcher’s Wait a While. I’ll surely arrive too late to catch NYRA’s 1:30 news conference announcing a new member of the senior management team (Paulick?), but I’m sure one of my fellow bloggers will be all over that story when it breaks.
Update: NYRA announced the hiring the Hal Handel as COO. More details, commentary on Left at the Gate.
