Red Smith Handicap GII and Mrs. Revere Stakes G II

The System's Ratings of the nine entrants for Aqueduct's Saturday feature (Red Smith Handicap):
(Higher the number, the better)

Banrock- 6.25
Strike a Deal- 6
Summer Patriot- 5.6
Always First- 5.25
Lauro- 4.75
Wheels Up At Noon- 4.25
Interpatation- 4
Presious Passion- 3.5
Hard Top- 3.25

As you can see, there are no outliers in the 1 3/8 miles event. From top to bottom the race is fairly even. Even the horse with the lowest rating (Hard Top) is tricky in this spot. Making just his second start on this side of the pond, with a monster pedigree and intriguing connections.

The System's Ratings for Churchill's Saturday Feature (Mrs. Revere Stakes):

My Princess Jess- 8.5
Acoma- 7.5
Raw Silk- 5.25
My Baby Baby- 5
Clear Pond- 5
Scolara- 4.5
Golden Doc A- 3.5
Absolutely Cindy- 3.5
Seemingly- 3
Dark Sky- 3
Sky Mom- 1

My Princess Jess is a nice filly. She seems like she is in the right spot to close her 3-year-old campaign with a win. The main challenge jockey Eibar Coa will face is the outside 11 post.
