Justin Zayat at age 23 is already helping, as racing and stallion manager, to run his father Ahmed Zayat’s racing operation which owns the first Triple Crown winner in 37 years. Justin has just graduated with a degree in economics from New York University. With 'American Pharoah' dominating his field in the $1-million William Hill Haskell Invitational Stakes (G1), Justin may be able to give us insight into his next start and his path to the Breeders’ Cup Classic. What does the future hold for such a young up-and-coming individual in the sport of racing?

In the second segment, Belterra's race caller, odds line maker, blogger and may we mention previous host of this show, Ed Meyer together with John will set their sights on the Windy City where the Arlington Million (G1); the $750,000 Beverly D Stakes (G1); the $400,000 Secretariat Stakes (G1) and the $400,000 American St. Leger Stakes (G3) are run this Saturday.
