Race 1 Nine colts are expected to line up for this Six and One Half Furlong event on the dirt.

Race 4 This affair is scheduled to go on the lawn, and it will stretch the fillies out to One and one-sixteenth miles.

The distance is Five and One Half Furlongs, with the surface being the grass.

Ten colts will battle it out over one mile on the Inner Turf course, and one more is signed up and is Also Eligible, but only for the Main Track Only.

Race 2 Eight colts will compete over six furlongs on the main track.

The fillies stretch out to one mile on the inner turf.

This six furlong dash on the dirt is for open company.

Eight trainers have won more than five unrestricted juvenile MSW races at Saratoga over the previous five years (2020 thru 2024).

Recently, I posted on X that of the 190 unrestricted 2YO MSW races over the past five years (2020 thru 2024), 115 of the winners were FTSers, and 75 had raced at least one time previously.

A full field of 10 colts is set to go five and a half furlongs on the turf course (weather permitting, of course).

Bonus info

Race 1 Only six colts have signed up for this one, but it’s quality over quantity.

This affair is scheduled for one mile on the inner turf course, and nine colts are set to have a go.

A full batch of 14 have passed through the entry box for this five and a half furlong dash on the grass; however, only 10 will make it into the starting gate.

The big day is finally here.

Thirteen colts have gone through the entry process, but only twelve will step forward into the starting gate.

Five Furlongs on the dirt for the boys, and we’ve got nine colts set to knock heads.

Nine fillies are set to line up to compete over six furlongs on the dirt.

A bulging field of thirteen fillies has been entered to do battle, including one that has to wait on the Also Eligible list.

The boys get a turn on the turf and will cover five panels in this affair.
