Racing Dudes Fantasy League Owner: Mike “Saratoga Slim” Spector

Analysis: He continues to make steady progress towards his 2018 debut after minor issues caused him to miss the second half of his 2-year-old season. He showed brilliance as a juvenile, which culminated in a win in the Grade 2 Saratoga Special. He could be a major player if he comes back strong. However, Asmussen has said that he hasn’t even thought about a race yet, so that’s concerning.
