Here we are, the final Friday of the 2007 meet. Twi-light racing takes place tonight, so ther first race won't go off until 2:45 p.m. This weekend carries four Grade Is - the Woodward, the Forego, the Spinaway and the Hopeful. The first two are for older horses, the last two for the babies. All, though, will have an impact on the fall races and especially the Breeders' Cup.
The weather looks like it will cooperate these final few days, as the heat goes away and the sun stays. NYRA likely won't hit the 1 million mark for attendance, but you have to call the meet a big success overall. Once the gates close, though, who knows who will be the ones to open them back up next July?
