A Labor Day weekend of horse racing that few fans will forget is over, highlighted by one of the most awesome displays of talent in modern history provided by Flightline in the TVG Pacific Classic Stakes at Del Mar.

After a thrilling weekend highlighted by Epicenter’s win in the Runhappy Travers Stakes, the summertime portion of the North American Thoroughbred racing calendar reaches its swan song over the upcoming Labor Day weekend.

On opening night at Remington Park in August, Dale Day sits atop his Oklahoma perch. That’s a nest that can be a lonely spot, as Day peers through the binoculars from the announcer’s booth. But Day has his share of company; there are equine athletes hearing his call over the loudspeakers, and every now and then, humans listen as well. Day speaks with an even tone, whether it is one on one or to the multitude. If he needs exhilaration for a stretch run, it’s at the ready.

It's been far from an unusual sight to see three jockeys from the same family competing against each other at Saratoga Race Course this past summer.

One of the biggest weekends in North American horse racing is coming up, highlighted by a spectacular Saturday Aug. 27 racecard at Saratoga Race Course that is anchored by the 153rd edition of the Runhappy Travers Stakes.
