Governor Andrew M. Cuomo makes an announcement at Saratoga Race Course.

Saratoga Springs — Andrew Cuomo has been governor since 2011, but he just made his first visit to Saratoga Race Course Saturday — where he scored on a $20 bet.

Cuomo, sitting in the reserved box of the New York Racing Association Chairman Michael Del Giudice, played horse ‘Our Country’ with 2-1 odds — raking in $68, said a spokesman.

But at first he wasn’t so sure if he would part with his dough, telling a Post reporter before the race he would only try his hand “if I’m feeling lucky.”

The 156-year-old racetrack is less than 40 miles from Cuomo’s Albany home.

Cuomo earlier announced the construction of a special pavilion for backstretch workers dedicated the late Mary Lou Whitney, known locally as the “Queen of Saratoga.”

Whitney, died July 19th, was inducted into the Racing Hall of Fame Friday.

The Saratoga meet began Thursday, July 11 and runs eight weeks, until Monday, Sept. 2.
