Excitement for the Kentucky Derby reached all the way to Saratoga Springs.
Two records were set at Saratoga Casino Hotel over the weekend.
A record payout of $55,800 went to one lucky winner who bought a 20¢ ticket on Saratoga’s Jackpot Super High Five.
Saratoga Casino also set a single day live racing all-source handle record of just under $715,000.
