This week on HorseCenter, co-hosts Brian Zipse and Matt Shifman handicap Saturday's $1 million features at Parx Racing with full field analysis of the Pennsylvania Derby (G1) and Cotillion Stakes (G1).
With the loss of Maximum Security from the field of the Derby, there's a concentration on pace and class scenarios.
The Cotillion drew a field of 11 filled with some of the best 3-year-old fillies in the country. The unbeaten Chad Brown runner Guarana looks for her third Grade 1 victory in a row, but she must deal with the front-running talent of Serengeti Empress. Both of the guys are going to use the same 8-1 shot in their Cotillion wagers.
Good luck with your bets this weekend and, as always, thanks for watching the show.
