ost casual fans that go to
Saratoga hope to leave
with something, usual-
ly a few extra dollars in
their pocket. If not, maybe a t-shirt
or a program autographed by John
Velazquez or memories of a great af-
ternoon at the races. Bob Edwards
left with a $255,000 yearling.
"It was insane," says Edwards, the
patriarch of e Five Racing Thorough-
breds. "We rolled into town for a fam-
ily reunion and left with a quarter mil-
lion-dollar horse."
