What about that <strong>Travers<\/strong>?<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cynthiapublishing.com\/pick.html\">free<\/a> page, <strong>Race 12<\/strong>, along with <strong>Race 8<\/strong>, the <strong>Grade II Ballston Spa<\/strong>, and <strong>Race 10<\/strong>, the <strong>Grade I Ballerina<\/strong>. If that&rsquo;s not a stakes sweep for ya, we have a nice little Hurricane we&rsquo;d like you to meet&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>We take that back! There can be no joking about heavy weather. Very sorry. Also at the <strong>Swampatoga<\/strong> today is the <strong>Grade I King&rsquo;s Bishop<\/strong>, <strong>Race 11<\/strong>, and the great <strong>#7 Uncle Mo<\/strong> will deserve favoritism if he&rsquo;s fit to fire. <\/p>\n<p>But wait, there&rsquo;s more! If three stakes from Saratoga Springs, N.Y., don&rsquo;t do enough for yourself, here&rsquo;s a further trio from the great <strong>Calder Race Course<\/strong>, Miami Gardens, Fla. <strong>Races 7<\/strong>, <strong>8<\/strong> &#038; <strong>11<\/strong> are the <strong>Seacliff<\/strong>, the Fla. Stallion <strong>Susan&rsquo;s Girl<\/strong>, the Fla. Stallion <strong>Affirmed<\/strong>. That brings the stakes sweep count on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cynthiapublishing.com\/pick.html\">free<\/a> page to 6. Half a dozen. Three-plus-three of the other!<\/p>\n<p>Prohibitive fave in the works in the <strong>second<\/strong> at <strong>Canterbury<\/strong>, <strong>Race 2<\/strong>, MTA <strong>Stallion Auction<\/strong>: <strong>#3 SAMendra<\/strong>. Likewise in the fourth there, via <strong>#2 Bert&rsquo;slittlesister<\/strong>. Sprint to the windows posthaste; perhaps the odds won&rsquo;t be depressed too much between now and post time.<\/p>\n<p>Quite a different scenario at <strong>Hoosier<\/strong>, <strong>Race 7<\/strong>, the <strong>Brickyard<\/strong>, where pole-position seems more like a burden than a boon. In it, we shoot for the Bonkers-type box of Al <strong>Unser<\/strong> IV &#038; Chris <strong>Economacki<\/strong> Sr. &mdash; er, make that <strong>#5 Paws Prince<\/strong> &#038; <strong>#3 Liepers Fork<\/strong>. Regardless of the outcome there, we&rsquo;ll hoist a glass bottle of milk in the Winner&rsquo;s Circle. Or is that Victory Lane?<\/p>\n<p>Happy motoring! And, of course, best wishes for a prosperous Saturday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OK, Ancient Spa fans!
