Saratoga 7-29 $400,000 pick four on ESPN

Hall of Fame trainer Bill Mott figures to be fairly busy at Saratoga Race Course on Saturday with the Grade 1, $500,000 Diana Handicap for older fillies and mares on the turf course and the Grade 2, $500,000 Jim Dandy for three-year-olds, both at nine furlongs.

Both the Diana and Jim Dandy will be televised live on ESPN from 5-6 p.m. Also, both stakes races are part of the guaranteed $400,000 Pick Four, which will be race numbers 7-10. The Diana is race No. 8 and the Jim Dandy, which is the traditional Saratoga prep race for the Grade 1, $1 million New York Lottery Travers Stakes at 1¼ miles on August 26, is race No. 9.

who is in the diana ??

this could be my first grand slam at saratoga,
with two graded stakes in it, it shoud be easier that other times.

Biancone's Lady of Venice is running in the Diana.. she's a 3yo, but has a real good chance here. (Gorella is going to Arlington for the Beverly D.)
BTW, the Diana and Jim Dandy are running on the 29th(sat), not 30th(sun).

Does anybody know what the weather is supposed to be like at the spa on sat?
