NEW YORK — By Chris Lomon
Spotlight Race:
$125,000 Mount Vernon Stakes at Saratoga Race Course
Date:
Sunday, June 9 (Race 10, 5:43pm ET)
What to do with a $20 Bet:
First bet: $10 to win on #1 Silver Skillet
Second bet: $2 exacta – #1 Silver Skillet to win with #3, #4, #6, #8, and #9 to finish second.
The Reason:
Take the combo of trainer Christophe Clement and jockey Joel Rosario, add in a horse who has had success at Saratoga, and it hopefully adds up to a nice win and decent exacta payout.
