US Racing Tips - Six Grade Ones covered at Keeneland, Belmont and Santa Anita

Here are our free US Racing tips across those three cards on Saturday.

Chad Brown trains all of the top three in the betting and REGAL GLORY is clearly the best of that trio. Brown's six-year-old thrashed stablemate In Italian when they clashed in the Just A Game Stakes and was last seen finishing second in the Fourstardave to Casa Creed, who runs in the Joe Hirsch later in the evening. She's a worthy favourite.

Brad Cox and Luis Saez won this Grade One with future Breeders' Cup Juvenile, Belmont Stakes and Travers Stakes winner Essential Quality two years ago, and INSTANT COFFEE could hand Cox a second victory. 

Instant Coffee made a nice impression on debut over seven furlongs, plugging on down the inside to win going away from his main rival. He's by first-season sire Bolt D'Oro, who won the Del Mar Futurity as a two-year-old and placed second to Justify in the Santa Anita Derby the following season. There's plenty of value in Instant Coffee's current price.

$1m is up for grabs in this wide-open renewal of the Turf Mile. Classic Causeway and Smooth Like straight will go forward straight away from low stalls. Somelikeithotbrown knows only one way of running too, so I expect he will start extremely quickly to grab the lead from stall ten.

Most of the older horses in this race, while most are very classy, seem fairly exposed, so I'll take a chance on Todd Pletcher's improving three-year-old ANNAPOLIS. A Grade Two winner as a juvenile, Irad Ortiz's juniors mount placed second to Nations Pride in the Saratoga Derby in August, and comes into this on the back of an effortless Grade Three triumph. Annapolis remains progressive and the race should be run to suit.

Going To Vegas made all to win this 12 months ago and she could go well again. My preference is for Brendan Walsh's five-year-old FAMILY WAY, who has finished second to classy mares Virginia Joy, War Like Goddess and Bleecker Street in high-level races this season and she'll have no trouble at all seeing out this trip. 

The current favourite for the Breeders' Cup Juvenile, CAVE ROCK lines up at Santa Anita on Saturday, fresh off a dominant victory in the Del Mar Futurity four weeks ago. Bob Baffert's colt is already the highest-rated juvenile in North America and I'm finding it impossible to side against him this weekend.

War Like Goddess takes on the boys for the first time in this key trial for the Breeders' Cup Turf. Billy Mott's mare was surprisingly beaten as the 1/5 favourite last time out and she looks a little short in the betting to me.

After landing the plum draw in stall one, I could see BYE BYE MELVIN stealing this one from the front. Graham Motion's five-year-old ran out an impressive pillar-to-post winner at Saratoga last time out. Although he's yet to prove himself in stakes company, Bye Bye Melvin should get an easy lead on Saturday night and he could be very hard to peg back.
