Whitney Day Generates Record Handle

Covfefe | Sarah Andrew

Saratoga's 11-race card, dedicated to the late Marylou Whitney, generated an all-sources handle record of $31,835,863. That figure eclipsed the previous Whitney Day record of $30,153,138 set in 2017.

The card featured three graded races, with Leinster (Majestic Warrior) setting a course record while winning the GIII Troy S., Covfefe (Into Mischief) outbattling Serengeti Empress (Alternation) in a dramatic renewal of the GI Longines Test S., and McKinzie (Street Sense) soaring home first in the GI Whitney S.

On-track handle for the day was $7,078,192 and the paid attendance was 40,791.
