SARATOGA SPRINGS — Reigning 2-year-old champion Forte will square off against the three winners of this year’s Triple Crown races when the starting gate opens in the 2023 Travers Stakes on Saturday at Saratoga Race Course in upstate New York. After famously being scratched from the Kentucky Derby and missing the Preakness Stakes, Forte has finished second in the Belmont Stakes and won the Jim Dandy Stakes. On Saturday, he will meet Kentucky Derby hero Mage, Preakness Stakes winner National Treasure and Belmont Stakes champ Arcangelo in a scintillating Midsummer Derby. Forte is the 7-5 favorite in the 2023 Travers Stakes odds. Arcangelo is the 5-2 second choice in the seven-horse 2023 Travers Stakes field, while Mage is 4-1 among the 2023 Travers Stakes horses.
Post time for the 1¼-mile Travers Stakes 2023 is 6:11 p.m. ET. With several accomplished horses set to enter the starting gate on Saturday, you’ll want to see what Saratoga Springs-based racing insider and Beyer Speed Figure maker Bob Weir has to say before making any 2023 Travers Stakes picks.
