In addition to a multi-year stint as a host and racing analyst on TVG, Lyons saddled 1995 Breeder’s Cup Sprint (G1) winner Desert Stormer. He also bought and campaigned Santa Anita Derby (G1) winner Castledale. He’s currently a bloodstock agent and the host of a weekly radio show in Lexington, Kentucky.

The Wednesday, August 23 program at Saratoga has 10 races on the agenda including the $100,000 John’s Call Stakes for three-year-olds and upward which have not won a graded stakes race on the turf in 2017 going a mile and five-eighths on the Mellon Turf Course.

Frankie will be giving out his picks FREE of charge for the duration of Saratoga’s 2017 meet. Click HERE to see who he likes on Wednesday!
