This week on HorseCenter, hosts Matt Shifman and Brian Zipse preview and provide picks for big fields in a trio of upcoming 2019 Kentucky Derby qualifying races.
Most top probables are already known for Monday's Southwest Stakes (G3) at Oaklawn Park, while the draws are done for Fair Grounds' Risen Star (G2) and the El Camino Real Derby at Golden Gate Fields.
The big one to watch is at Fair Grounds, with the winner receiving 50 qualifying points, enough to make the starting gate on the first Saturday in May.
Good luck with your wagers during the holiday weekend -- hopefully we're of some assistance with that -- and as always, thanks for tuning into HorseCenter!
