I see in the TV listings that Saratoga Live will air from 2:00pm to 4:30pm, so at least we'll have their coverage of the undercard.

The overnight is out. The Balliston Spa is slated to go off at 6:20pm. Too bad the return of Lady Eli won't make the National broadcasts.

So it is! Just checked the listings. It's on Fox Sports 2 only, not MSG+.

Thanks!

Which of MTC's races is good enough to beat Lady Eli?

I'm under the assumption that Chad Brown & Co. wouldn't have brought her back unless she was reminiscent of her 'old' self before the freak accident.

She sure as hell looked ready to go in one of her latest workouts with Sea Calisi, but my eyes have been known to fool me before.

And just so you know, when you make silly statements about Chrome and a few others, it just makes you look foolish. As sharp as you've been at times lately, I feel as if you've said some equally idiotic stuff. Just my two red pennies.

That's the only excuse I can think of.

Clearly he either wasn't serious, or he was trying to hard to use hyperbole to illustrate that he thinks Songbird is overrated.

15-1 on creator would be just fine. The old hoss who ran worst in the the race you hate angle. The screws will be tightened up for the Travers. He'll be along in time.
