Me too Ted! And ...I hope I can make it to Saratoga too. Bud (John) was my father-in-law, and it's possible you might have met previously. I don't recall him ever going to anything live by Doc...but maybe pre-1992 which was when I first met him. I did help him with VALT and using the PC in general when me and his daughter moved to Phoenix in '02. When we returned a few years later, he left the PC work to me, but he would hand me the DRF with the horses & PPs to use marked in black. He bought the DRF at the local news-stand every day and had a yearly subscription to the Bloodhorse.
He passed in 2008 and I was divorced 10+ years ago, but I still thank him for getting me into handicapping and then reading the Formulator follow-ups.
