Question: The Travers Stakes is held at the race course in the city just north of what heart of Capital Region?
Context: Keen Ice (foaled March 25, 2012) is an American Thoroughbred racehorse, best known for winning the 2015 Travers Stakes in an upset win over Triple Crown Champion American Pharoah.  He previously faced off against American Pharoah and other notable horses in the 2015 Kentucky Derby, finishing seventh, was third in the 2015 Belmont Stakes, and was second in the 2015 Haskell Invitational Stakes.  Prior to the Travers, his only other win had been a maiden race at Churchill Downs as a two-year-old. The Travers Stakes is an American Grade I Thoroughbred horse race held at Saratoga Race Course in Saratoga Springs, New York.  It is nicknamed the "Mid-Summer Derby" and is the third-ranked race for American three-year-olds according to international classifications, behind only the Kentucky Derby and Belmont Stakes.  First held in 1864, it was named for William R. Travers, the president of the old Saratoga Racing Association.  His horse, Kentucky, won the first running of the Travers.  The race was not run in 1896, 1898, 1899, 1900, 1911, and 1912. Annihilate 'em (April 11, 1970 – November 20, 1989) was a U.S. thoroughbred race horse who was best known for winning the 1973 Travers Stakes at Saratoga Race Course in Saratoga Springs, New York.  Annihilate 'em was ridden to victory in the Travers by Ron Turcotte, who originally planned to ride Triple Crown winner Secretariat in the race.  However, Secretariat missed the race due to poor health after losing the Whitney Stakes to Onion two weeks earlier while running with a low-grade fever.  Annihilate 'Em and Secretariat met in their only race together in the Marlboro Cup Invitational Handicap in September 1973, where Secretariat finished first and Annihilate 'Em finished fifth. Saratoga Springs is a city in Saratoga County, New York, United States.  The population was 26,586 at the 2010 census.  The name reflects the presence of mineral springs in the area, which has made Saratoga a popular resort destination for over 200 years.  The city is just north of Ballston Spa, in the heart of New York's Capital Region. The Man o' War Cup is a solid gold trophy that commemorates the winners of the Travers Stakes, held at Saratoga Race Course in Saratoga, New York.  Winners of the Travers, , affectionately called the "Mid-Summer Derby" and the oldest continuously-run grade one stakes race in the United States, have their name inscribed on the original and receive a gold-plated replica of the Cup. Damascus (April 14, 1964 – August 8, 1995) was a Thoroughbred race horse sired by Sword Dancer (1959's Horse of the Year) out of Kerala (by My Babu) foaled at the Jonabell Farm in Lexington, Kentucky.  In 1967, he won the Preakness Stakes, Belmont Stakes*, Jockey Club Gold Cup*, Wood Memorial, Travers Stakes, Dwyer Stakes (closing from 12 lengths back and spotting the runner up 16 pounds), and Woodward Stakes and was named Horse of the Year and champion three-year-old colt, plus he shared the champion handicap male honors with Buckpasser.  Also in 1967, Damascus finished third in the 1967 Kentucky Derby.  A high-strung horse, he was enervated by the humidity and spooked by the crowd noise, so he was thereafter given a stable pony to calm him.  During the same year, top horses Dr. Fager and Buckpasser were also competing.  In Blood-Horse magazine's top 100 U.S. thoroughbred champions of the 20th Century, Buckpasser ranks 14th and Dr. Fager ranks 6th.  In a race many consider the "Race of the Century," Damascus won the 1967 Woodward by 10 lengths over both of these horses after his connections, as well as those of Buckpasser, used stablemates to set a blistering pace, thus weakening Dr. Fager.  Damascus himself ranks number 16 in the Blood Horse listing. This is a listing of the horses that finished in either first, second, or third place and the number of starters in the Travers Stakes, an American Grade 1 race for three-year-olds at 1-1/4 miles on dirt held at Saratoga Race Course in Saratoga, New York. Arrogate (foaled April 11, 2013) is an American Thoroughbred racehorse who won the 2016 Travers Stakes in a track record in his first stakes appearance.  He then won the Breeders' Cup Classic and was named the American Champion Three-Year-Old Male Horse and World's Best Racehorse of 2016.  To start his four-year-campaign, he won the 2017 Pegasus World Cup in a new track record followed by a win in the Dubai World Cup.  Despite having only four stakes race wins, the large purses for these wins have made him the all-time leading money earner in North America. This is a listing of the top attended stakes races for thoroughbred racing in North America by year.  The chart will list the paid attendance to the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky; the Preakness Stakes at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland; the Kentucky Oaks at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky; the Belmont Stakes in Elmont, New York; the Travers Stakes in Saratoga Springs, New York and the Breeders' Cup World Championships whose location rotates annually. Point Given (foaled March 27, 1998) is an American Hall of Fame champion Thoroughbred racehorse.  As a three-year-old, he won the 2001 Preakness Stakes and Belmont Stakes, along with the Eclipse Award for Horse of the Year.  He was the first horse in history to win four $1 million races in a row: the Preakness Stakes, the Belmont Stakes (in which he ran the fourth fastest Belmont ever, faster than both Seattle Slew and Affirmed, each of whom won the Triple Crown), the Haskell Invitational Handicap, and the Travers Stakes.  (This feat was surpassed by American Pharoah in 2015, who won 5 straight $1 million races while winning the Triple Crown.)  His lifetime race record was 9 wins out of 13 starts with 3 second places, earning $3,968,500.  The only time he finished out of the money was in the 2001 Kentucky Derby, where he ran 5th.
