The $1.25 million Travers Stakes brings one of the year’s strongest 3-year-old fields to Saratoga Race Course on Saturday, August 29. Known as the “Mid-Summer Derby,” the 1¼-mile Grade 1 could go a long way toward deciding the 2026 3-year-old championship. Golden Tempo (5-2), winner of the Kentucky Derby and Belmont Stakes, is the horse to beat, while Renegade (3-1) and rapidly improving Sea Strike (5-1) appear capable of taking him down. Napoleon Solo (8-1) and Baby Vino (10-1) offer legitimate upset potential, while Emerging Market (15-1) and Ocelli (20-1) are intriguing longshots for bettors looking to spice up exactas and trifectas.
