Just how important is Saturday’s $750,000 Resorts World Casino Sword Dancer Stakes at Saratoga Race Course?

The $1.25 million, Grade 1 Runhappy Travers Stakes Saturday at Saratoga Race Course brings together a seven-horse group of 3-year-olds vying for top honors in one of the most prestigious races of the summer.

America’s Best Racing and handicapper (and avid gambler) Monique Vág team up to provide horseplayers with their best bets of the weekend.

Vág will identify her top picks as well as at least one longshot play of the weekend, a nice opportunity to swing for the fences on a win bet or to take a shot with a show bet. She also will occasionally look for strong exacta plays for the weekend or try to spot a nice opportunity for other wagers.

This Weekend’s Bets

The stage is set. The horses are ready. On Saturday at Saratoga Race Course, the $1.25 million, Grade 1 Runhappy Travers Stakes will be contested for the 152nd time, pitting some of North America’s fastest 3-year-old Thoroughbreds against each other in an event nicknamed the “Mid-Summer Derby.”
