The back half of the Saturday card at Monmouth features one of the two Grade 1 races at the 2019 meet, the United Nations, race 11. This year's edition is especially competitive, but it helps to make for an interesting pick-four sequence that also includes the Grade 3 Iselin.

Triple Crown season has come and gone, but the derby action continues Saturday with the Ohio Derby, in which Owendale is likely to go off a heavy favorite. Based on his price and running style, I'm looking to take a shot against him. Farther east, Monmouth Park features the only Grade 1 race of the weekend in the United Nations, but I'm more interested in the two dirt stakes bookending the U.N., the Philip Iselin and the Lady's Secret.
