Travers Day

The sun is out and the air is sticky as Travers Day is upon us in Saratoga. The humidity is sky-high today and there remains a threat of wet weather this afternoon. No major surprises as the card is set to start in less than one hour and the crowd is filling in around the grounds pretty nicely so far. Reading some early reports and watching the morning local news, most fans are sticking with Street Sense to win. Some, though, are a bit more adventurous and will try to pick the upset in the 138th Travers Stakes. Whoever wins, this year's Travers appears to be the annual event that it has become over the years. In case you missed my column today, I'm going with Street Sense, Sightseeing and Loose Leaf. Good luck to you all.
