Tremendous set that could easily qualify as a stake with many fast ones signed on for the $75k satch. Graydar has potential to be special and worked spectacularly upstate according to Welsch. Sir Bond goes first time Asmussen and broke maiden for Howard like he could be something nice. The Phipps' Reload is rock solid for Shug but ran into red hot Rigby at the Spa. Winner of 3 straight, Saratoga Snacks is fastest coming in and stretches out while testing open company for Sciacca and Bill Parcells. Chief Energy (20-1) is intriguing addition to the cast that could invade the board and spur big exotics. As good or better than the stakes that follow..
