On this week's Racing Roundtable, James Scully, Vance Hanson, and Ashley Anderson cover some of the highlights of an eventful Labor Day weekend.
In the debate portion of the discussion, James and Vance discuss whether Fierceness is the main threat to Sovereignty in the Breeders' Cup Classic (G1) after his authoritative win in the course-and-distance Pacific Classic (G1).
Later, the guys take sides on Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint (G1) hopefuls Motorious and Ag Bullet, both of whom won prep races on Saturday.
The Roundtable concludes with thoughts on Ted Noffey's brilliant win in the Hopeful (G1), the action at Kentucky Downs, and James' two-year-old spotlight.
