It's one of the 4 Gr 1 races on Saturday's card.

The first of these is the Champagne for 2yos over 1600m with 6 runners.  Jackie's Warrior is 3 from 3 and is 8/13 for Steve Asmussen and Joel Rosario.  Chad Brown's Reinvestment Risk is on 11/4.

The Frizette is for the girls (2yos) over the same trip and here Vequist is on 13/8 but we like Cantata 11/4, Asmussen's Medaglia d'Oro filly with Joel Rosario in the irons and 11/4 quote.

7 runners in this one.

The Flower Bowl is for the f&m 3y+ over 2000m on the turf track,  Brown's Cambier Parc is on 5/2 with Velazquez riding and Civil Union 11/4 McCaughey-Rosario best of the 7 starters.

The Jockey Club Gold Cup is over 2000m on the dirt track but only 5 starters – where are all the horses?  Tacitus is on 11/10 for Bill Mott and José Ortiz and Happy Saver 4/1 for Todd Pletcher and Irad Ortiz so it could be a bit of brotherly rivalry on hand here.
