It’s difficult to determine the most likely winner of the $300,000, Grade 1 Spendthrift Hopeful Stakes on Labor Day at Saratoga Race Course. Eight talented 2-year-olds have been entered, and each one comes into the race off a victory.

That said, three horses conditioned by Hall of Fame trainers look especially appealing.

For the ninth year in a row, America’s Best Racing is challenging some of the brightest minds in horse betting to come up with their top three picks for key races every weekend leading up to the 2025 Triple Crown and then continuing through the 2025 Breeders’ Cup World Championships. The handicappers face off in what we like to call the “Big-Race Showdown.”

The Grade 1, $1 million Breeders’ Cup “Win and You’re In” Pacific Classic Stakes at Del Mar drew a field of eight on Saturday, with three heavy hitters entered to compete for an automated berth to the Nov. 1 Classic, also at Del Mar.
