    On tonight’s Going in Circles Big Monday show Barry and I recap the stakes action from the weekend including Life is Good’s Whitney where more people seemed to be talking about the ride than the race itself.

  • Going in Circles Big Monday Show w/Barry Spears - presented by Pleasant Acres Farm
    On tonight’s Going in Circles Big Monday show Barry and I recap opening week at Saratoga that went off mostly without a hitch. Discussed the Diana stakes and how difficult it is to try to determine what horses with similar running styles that come from the same barn will do. Also talked about NY Gaming commission taking credit for “banning” a trainer when they actually didn’t do anything but what everybody else is doing. Had a discussion about the stakes next weekend at Saratoga that look as though they might be light in terms of entry’s and also who might show up in Wednesdays entries for the Haskell.
