Saratoga Opens to Fans Hungry for a Racing Tradition

Love to see her come,

Hate to watch her leave.

Ponies win and lose.

Money comes and goes …

… But mostly, it just goes.

Whether hobnobbing with the suits,

Or slumming with the scabs,

We’re here for the same things, really

Mostly thrills and laughs.

And when the party’s over,

Back to the Bluegrass I go.

See you next year; next summer,

My lovely friend and foe
