This week on HorseCenter, co-hosts Brian Zipse and Matt Shifman continue to cover the latest on the road to the 2020 Kentucky Derby with analysis and picks for Saturday's Lecomte Stakes (G3), which features a wide-open field of aspiring 3-year-olds at Fair Grounds.

Also included is a preview of the following week's Pegasus World Cup (G1) and Pegasus World Cup Turf (G1) at Gulfstream Park.

For the Lecomte, Zipse includes a morning line for a race that lacks a standout. Between them, the hosts figure any of 10 have a chance at making it into the trifecta.

As for the Pegasus, enjoy an updated look at the prospective fields following Sunday's announcement that horses such as Midcourt, Tenfold and Bodexpress are now involved.

Good luck at the races and, as always, thanks for watching the show.
