Too easy? Okay, then. Let's kick it up a notch with more Thoroughbred racing trivia about what some have nicknamed Saratoga County's Trifecta Dental Spa. What were the odds that in addition to Mott and McGaughey, the Ballston Spa practice of Doctor of Dental Surgery Thomas Pray would also include much celebrated Kentucky Derby winning trainers Barclay Tagg (Funny Cide, 2003) and Nick Zito (Strike the Gold, 1991 and Go for Gin, 1994)? While it's a sure bet we at Legacies Unlimited don't yet have definitive answers to these questions, we hope reading the above will spark unbridled enthusiasm in seeking out complimentary copies of the exquisite July-August 2019 edition of Simply Saratoga magazine. Among the articles found within the current 196-page issue of the glossy periodical is one by Legacies Unlimited co-founder Ann Hauprich titled "Horsing around with Saratoga's unofficial track dentist Tom Pray." The richly illustrated feature documents how the ingenuity and integrity which Dentist Thomas Pray and staff members Joy Soriano, Taylor Joyce, Pray demonstrated along the backstretch three decades ago led his practice (then Mel Curry, Bre McCoy and Susie Joyce couldn't resist horsing around still cutting its baby teeth) to become a dental home turf for hundreds of patients near the tail end of a portrait session with Donna Martin at Village Photo in Ballston Spa, NY Vickie Yanagihara subsequently linked to Saratoga's thoroughbred racing industry, including world renowned captured the action when National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame Hall trainer Nick Zito and equine artist R.C.
