A cool, wet day for the runners out at this Twin Spires this Saturday. Snow fell this morning here in Louisville, so the track will probably be wet of muddy, but they do a good job put there of getting it in racing condition.
We're looking at the final four races on the card today, four very competitive allowance races.

What a wonderful day for the nine Saturday Breeders Cup Races at Keeneland! I know, some of you asked for Friday Picks, but circumstances prevented me from listing my picks. I did have four of the five winners, including Forte's upset win.
I handicapped the nine BC Saturday races, and here's what I got. I'll jump back in with scratches as needed.

Yes, the horses have returned to that Lexington track and the first fall Saturday up there is an action-packed, big-time quality field...with five stakes races and three of the Grade I. It's also "track and then football" for a lot of the fans at Keeneland, who wll tailgate at the track before heading over to see UK face South Carolina. We'll see how that skews the later betting. I've got a friend headed up there, who will be wearing his red and black Louisville gear. I hope he survives.
Anyway, I'm looking at Races 6-10. Play 'em anyway you like. So many good jockeys and trainers and, yes, the New York contingent is there in force. \
