Oaklawn Park puts on a nine-race card Saturday with the featured $100,000 King Cotton slated as the seventh race. It is sunny and in the mid-30s in Hot Springs, Ark. Training was delayed on two separate occasions this morning due to temperatures in the 20s. The track was listed as muddy for works. First post is 1:05 p.m. Central.

Other highlights on the card include the fifth race, a maiden special weight route for 3-year-olds that drew Triple Crown nominee Reelfoot, who is coming off a third-place finish to eventual Holy Bull winner Harvey Wallbanger, and the eighth race, a first-level allowance for fillies and mares that drew Miz K, a daughter of the Grade 1-winning millionaire Tiz Miz Sue. The pick is Springdetti from the barn of trainer Norman McKnight.
