This week on HorseCenter, hosts Brian Zipse and Matt Shifman preview what's sure to be the biggest weekend of racing left in 2018.
Headlined by the Cigar Mile at Aqueduct, it also includes points races toward the Kentucky Derby and Oaks along with two more Grade 1 races for turf horses in California.
Discussed are the prospects of horses such as Mendelssohn, who cuts back in the Cigar Mile; Maximus Mischief, taking on stakes foes in the Remsen; and Marley’s Freedom as she stretches out to a mile in the Go For Wand.
Stick around for picks covering all six graded stakes races.
As always, thanks for watching the show.
