Breeze On By will face stakes competition for the first time Saturday in the Dr. Fager division of the Florida Sire Stakes.

Daily Racing Form has served as the most trusted source of news and information about the sport since 1894, and moving forward we have decided to provide a free daily playbook – something that both hardcore horseplayers and casual observers can reference to get informed of each day’s action.

BreezeFigs Quick-Pix Saturday, September 19, 2020 by Bob Fierro & Jay Kilgore

By DRF Staff

The rains came and basically wiped out our prognostications at Gulfstream last week but we did get a piece of a gimmick with at least one of the Pix when Romantical Note clunked up to fill out a trifecta after drawing in from MTO. Overall it was an unusually quiet week for BreezeFigs maidens with four winners from both the 3-year-old and 2-year-old competitors.

Shirl's Speight wins the Marine Stakes at Woodbine. Despite not having any Kentucky Derby qualifying points, he is assured a spot in the starting gate.

Weekend GamePlan for Sept. 19, 2020: Picks for Woodbine Mile, Singspiel, Ontario Racing

The pickings south of the Canadian border this Saturday are slim indeed.

The Belmont Oaks Invitational somehow drew just five entrants. The Downs at Albuquerque Handicap is the only other American six-figure stakes Saturday and try as I might to side against heavily favored Restrainedvengence, I failed.

So, it’s off to Woodbine. I don’t love any single horse but at least find enough raw material for three possible plays.

Woodbine Mile

Not a vintage renewal, for sure.

Peck: Monmouth horses to watch for week of Sept. 14, 2020

By Kenny Peck

IDLE TIME

Trainer: Mike Dini

Last race: Sept. 13, 10th

Finish: 4th by 13 1/2

Beyer: 55

Easily forgiven for finishing off the board in this off-the-turf race, as he has already proven he's best on the grass. Prior tries on the grass were better than the running lines may indicate.
