OK. After a brief breather, we’re back. And with this lineup, we’ll need all the oxygen we can take in…<\/p>\n

The eighth<\/strong> at Arlington<\/strong>, the Sprint<\/strong>, is a scramble. It’s covered via pay-per-view<\/a>, as are the eighth<\/strong> at Ellis<\/strong>, the Don Bernhardt<\/strong>, and Races 6-8<\/strong> at Colonial<\/strong>, the Kitten’s Joy<\/strong>, the Va. Oaks<\/strong> and the Va. Derby<\/strong>, respectively. Best wishes with those!<\/p>\n

The fourth<\/strong> at Hollypark<\/strong> is the Landaluce<\/strong>; it’s on the free<\/a> page. <\/p>\n

Now, on with the countdown…<\/p>\n

The ninth<\/strong> at Belmont<\/strong> is the Grade III Jaipur, where #7 Right One<\/strong> is that, at least from this corner. <\/p>\n

Plenty of outrageous added-money activity at the Colonial<\/strong>, and Race 4<\/strong> is the Chenery<\/strong>. In it, #11 Getupwiththesun<\/strong> can rise up for the surprise. The race after that is the fifth<\/strong>, the Tippett<\/strong>, and throw a serape over the field, it’s so close. We side with #1 Jazil’s Song.<\/p>\n

Delpark<\/strong> checks in with some nice ones, among them the ninth<\/strong>, the R. R. M. Carpenter Jr. Memorial<\/strong>, plus you remember Ruly III, his son, Lawrenceville graduate and onetime owner of the Philadelphia Phillies, including in 1980, when they won the World Serious (thanks, Bugs!) for the first time. Anyway, #7 In the Juice<\/strong> has great upset potential! And in the two-hoss showdown that is the 10th<\/strong>, the Grade II Delaware Handicap<\/strong>, #3 Havre de Grace<\/strong> gets the slight nod.<\/p>\n

A bit open in the ninth<\/strong> at Hollypark<\/strong>, the Grade II A Gleam<\/strong>. We prefer #6 Mildly Offensive<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Nice upset brewing in the 11th<\/strong> at Oceanport<\/strong>, where #1 Withgreatpleasure<\/strong> can do it in the Serena’s Song<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A bonus shocker from the River<\/strong> in the seventh<\/strong>, the Queen City Oaks<\/strong>. Wide open, and we will welcome #2 Willa Wando<\/strong> in the winner’s circle, with any luck.<\/p>\n

Now to Suffolk<\/strong> (!) for its eighth<\/strong>, the Rise Jim<\/strong>. Ready to light up the tote is #2 Sultan’s Prince<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

For less parimutuel excitement, try the eighth<\/strong> at Woodbine<\/strong>, the Toronto Cup<\/strong>, and #8 Clement Rock<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Extra for experts: The N.Y. Derby<\/strong> is the eighth at the Finger<\/strong>, and #2 Socialsaul<\/strong> can upset. …That’s the opposite of Race 7<\/strong> at the Thistle<\/strong>, the Geo. Lewis Memorial<\/strong>, where #1 Catlaunch<\/strong> figures strongly.<\/p>\n

All right, stakes-lovers! Now we can exhale!<\/p>\n

Best wishes for a prosperous Saturday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
