Saratoga is unique because of the fact that it's 36 days, it's at the prime time of the year for vacationers, it's a great destination spot for people to come to. The most fun you can get out of this game is picking your own winners, but if you need a little help, take a look at us once in a while. I like to pick long shots, but the key up here is picking winners, and that's not an easy thing because it's the hardest meet in the country, if not the world. What to see, where to go, which horse to bet. Turn to the Times Union, your Saratoga source.
