The first season in the books, horse racing begins its second season Saturday. The Triple Crown dominates the sport's first season, of course, and with all its focus on jewels it can be more glittery than substantial, more about anticipation than realization. There's no disputing jewelry's dazzling allure. The first season's appeal reaches even the most casual fans whose interest may not endure the distraction of multiplicities.

But now the second season begins, the championship season, most notably with Saturday's Stephen Foster Handicap at Churchill Downs. This second season, of course, culminates with the Breeders' Cup championship races, run this year on Nov. 2-3 at Santa Anita.
