Pletcher pair likely for Ladies Handicap

Bellera, winner of the Grade 3 Comely, and Another Broad, winner of the Top Flight Invitational in April, give trainer Todd Pletcher a potent 1-2 punch for Sunday’s $100,000 Ladies Handicap. Bellera, a 4-year-old daughter of Bernardini, is the 123-pound highweight, while Another Broad, runner-up in the Grade 3 Turnback the Alarm Handicap in November, is the second highweight at 121 pounds.

Others under consideration to start in the Ladies, which will be contested for the 149th time on Sunday, are Held Accountable (118 pounds), Our Super Nova (118), Lucky Move (117), Nonsensical (115), and Annie Rocks (114).

Saguaro Row tops Interborough probables

There will be live racing on Monday, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, at Aqueduct, with the feature being in the $100,000 Interborough Stakes for fillies at mares at seven furlongs.

Saguaro Row, winner of the Pumpkin Pie Stakes in November and runner-up to Spiced Perfection in the Grade 3 Go for Wand in December, looms the horse to beat.

Others under consideration for the race include Abounding Joy, Champagne Bliss, Honr Way, New Year’s Wish, and Slimey.
