Race 2 Comments: LIFE IN COLOR has been racing in good form at Saratoga. Ships to The Catskills for Lounsbury barn, a system that usually pays dividends, and gets a slight nod over KENT’S COOL KID who placed behind razor sharp winner last time despite a tough uncovered final half off slow early pace.
