Saratoga Springs, NY – With a little bit more than one month remaining in the racing season at Saratoga Casino Hotel, young reinsman Kyle Swift sits atop the driver standings.
In his first full year driving at the Spa, the 21 year old Swift has announced his presence with authority.
The regular driver for trainer Jaymes McAssey, Swift is looking to go essentially wire-to-wire atop the standings.
On Sunday (Nov. 8), the talented pilot guided four winners on the matinee card to pad his lead over Saratoga Hall of Famer Jimmy Devaux. All four Swift victories came behind McAssey trainees as the conditioner who sits second in the trainer standings saw his barn score a grand slam.
McAssey distaffers Wildcat Antonia, La Patrona Bella, Cyclone Sister and Miss Party Girl all recorded Sunday scores on ladies’ day at the Spa. Wildcat Antonia was making her debut out of the McAssey stable when she prevailed in the matinee’s opener while Miss Party Girl scored in what was her local debut.
Live racing continues on Monday (Nov. 9) with a matinee that starts at noon.
