Scenes from Day #2 (Tuesday, November 3, 2026):
Horse #305, Malik Mil, which we were interested in and which Anthony tried to buy. He sold for $100,000.00

Scoping out the vendor area - There was a sale on driving suits. Two for $1,500.00. Needless to say, we didn't purchase one. Though Rich did buy a nice belt. I should have gotten one too.
There were four from known drivers, including Braiden Rhoades and Andy (or Todd, I don't recall now) McCarthy, and one other driver whom I don't remember now. And other generic ones. I assume that for $1500, you tell them the colors you want. I guess the four that we saw there were either unpaid for by the drivers, or the size was wrong.
Many state programs, the USTA, etc., were there. We got bags, lots of pens, refrigerator magnets, and even T-shirts from the NYS Sire Stakes table.
There was a LOT of free food from many of the Breeders and Consignors. The lemon sorbet was off the hook. Had a few of those.
Our parting shot (Carmelo being cute):
A splendid time was had by all.
