I think it is..You would think the fact that the best stakes are on the weekend would keep Saratoga very well stocked. Should be interesting names.. If your Joe Bravo your in for a major change..No more 6 horse fields that he is 2/5 in that is for sure..

I think Bravo has been up against it the last couple of years. Obviously he doesn't ride as many races, but the last couple of years he's had some competition from guys like Coa, Lezcano, Trujillo and Centeno. But you would think that the competiton will get even tougher when a few of the NYRA guys migrate south to Monmouth for the summer.
