Horse Racing News, Notes and Daily Tips
- For a full racing schedule covering nine racetracks on Sat., June 6, visit the Daily Horse Racing Guide at TheLines, a valuable race and sports betting news site with information you can bet on.
- The Road to the Kentucky Derby continues Saturday with the 83rd running of Santa Anita Derby (G1). The 1 1/8 mile race drew a field of 7 and serves as a major prep and points (100-40-20-10) qualifier for the Kentucky Derby Sept. 5. Authentic (4/5) and Honor A.P. (9/5) are the horses to beat and Authentic has 60 points on the Kentucky Derby leaderboard, which is likely enough to run in the Derby. Seven stakes races on the Saturday card at Santa Anita includes the Hollywood Gold Cup (G1) and Santa Anita Oaks (G2), which drew just four runners including Swiss Skydiver (6/5), the clear leader on top of the Kentucky Oaks leaderboard.
- Saturday at Belmont Park has a $101,473 jackpot carryover and a mandatory payout in the Empire 6 covering the final six races with a .20-cent minimum bet. That race sequence includes four straight graded stakes races starting in Race 6 including the Grade 1 Carter Handicap in Race 9.
