Welcome, welcome, Photo Finish™ LIVE nation, to the Weekender — your one-stop shop covering everything you need to know about this weekend’s biggest races, events, and news.
Things have been newsy lately, as PFL continues to gain steam in the New Year with both new users and our veterans as the game approaches the moments we’ve all been waiting for.
It’s all gas and no breaks as we head into another big race Saturday, so without further ado, let’s launch into what’s planned for this weekend!
Third Time Derby Leaderboard
After last week’s wild Third Time Derby finish, you just knew the chase to clinch a Top 20 spot and a subsequent ticket into this week’s big race would be bananas.
Judging by this week’s leaderboard there will be multiple stables punching more than one horse in the biggest race of the week. That is unless your stable has something to say about things. There is still time to shoot up the leaderboard and into the race that will have everyone talking on Saturday night.
