Between now and the BC?

The whole Saratoga meet is super. Every weekend there are grade 1's.
Monmouth has a few nice graded stakes as well, most notably the Haskell, but they really do a good job with 2 year old stakes and some nice turf races scattered throughout the meet.
Arlington puts on a dynamite day known as "Millions Day" in mid August.
Delmar has a couple of nice races (Pacific Classic for one) but as a whole the meet is kind of stale.

Then comes September and October where Belmont absolutely rules, especially for turf racing on Saturdays. Throw in the Jockey Club Gold Cup and the rest of that always great card and you have probably the premier meet in racing. Keeneland also starts up again in September.
