The Travers 2009 Tee is a Shurbet Pick!

Shurbet here! Hope your racing season is going well. Ours is flying by! I stopped by the backstretch barns the other day to talk to my cousin, Seymour. He's a warm up pony from Brooklyn. But I won't name drop who he's worked with.

Seymour said he's been having a grand time watching all the visitors. There's been a lot of travelers from all over the world: England, Japan, Florida, Nebraska. The weather has been what it usually is in Saratoga Springs. Some rain. Some sun. Some rain. More sun. Seymour is looking forward to Travers and hoping that he catches a glimpse of that moose who was hanging around the track back in June.

Meanwhile, back at the store, the official 2009 New York Racing Association (NYRA) Travers T-shirt has arrived as well as the hat and glass. This is my pick of the week because I like to collect them every year so I can say, "What? Oh, my Travers tee? Yea, I was there." The Saratoga Race Course (SRC) tee and hat are also in. Check out the Official Saratoga Race Course Souvenirs category by clicking here.

You'll also find the 2009 Greg Montgomery poster t-shirt. Greg is a cool guy that you can meet this Wednesday night (August 12th) at 7pm in front of Impressions. He'll be here autographing books and posters. Everyone loves his annual Travers poster so much that Impressions put it on a tee. I'm going to have to get his autograph for Seymour cause he's a HUGE fan. It'll be a great holiday gift!
