With the Travers Stakes coming up Saturday B and I dive right into the fully loaded card at Saratoga. With six Grade 1's and one Grade 2 Saratoga is host to the best racing in the country on Saturday. Now, being the Travers is often referred to as the mid summer derby, it is more then fitting with the Triple Crown behind us we are waiting for one 3 year old to take the spot as the top 3 year old in the country. After the Travers I think we will finally have an answer. In addition to breaking down the entire Travers field B and I briefly discuss the rest of the loaded card. We also recap last weekends Pacific Classic where Arrogate came up short for the second time at Del Mar leaving everyone to wonder the million dollar question: Does Arrogate not like the track? Come November Arrogate will have to answer the call and prove he is still the worlds best horse. As per usual we introduce our Filly of the Week, discuss What We Got Wrong, and finally wrap things up with our Should of, Could of, Would of.
