As for the weather, overcast and muggy, with showers and scattered thunderstorms this morning into the afternoon.
As for the Belmont Stakes (at Saratoga again this year), the track is expected to be wet, perhaps even sloppy. Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty and Preakness Stakes victor Journalism meet again. Five weeks ago at Churchill Downs, Sovereignty edged out Journalism on a rain-soaked track in the Run for the Roses, as we cut-n-paste from elsewhere.

Right! The only 'True" East West street - Used to marvel my tourist friends with said fact and bring my trusty compass to prove it! Ha
I hate when they hold those horse races in the wet sloppy mud it is very dangerous for the horses who run at high speeds and can trip, fall and break a leg and then have to be put down. In Europe they do not hold horse races in the wet mud they cancel the race until the racetrack dry's out.
My apartment on the North side 9th St. has South facing windows that are actually South-East facing. Hmmm...Go figure.
