Grade I
Big Purse and a BC Spot at Stake in Alcibiades
The Grade 1 Alcibiades is about as good as it can get for two year old fillies, as the race offers a generous $600.000 purse and the coveted ticket to the BC Juvenile Fillies. That purse is an increase of $100.000 from last year, and last year saw a similar increase from 2021, so the status of this race is quite impressive, indeed.

Hiei Is Awesome Again in Victory at SA
The biggest race of the day at SA was the running of the Grade 1 Awesome Again Stakes, with plenty at stake but nothing bigger than the ticket to the BC Classic that is awarded to the winner. More than likely, Hiei would have already been here in one month’s time for that race, but following his struggle in the Travers, he needed a good race.
Spankersville Overpowers the Field in Stretch to Win The Woodward
It was a wet afternoon at AQU on Saturday, and that would lead to scratches throughout the raceday card. In the Woodward, it would cost us both our pre-race pick, Anna Da Artist, as well as Sensei. Neither have performed well on wet tracks, so the decision for each to scratch was likely not a difficult one.

Final BC Classic Qualifier Runs Saturday with Awesome Again Stakes
It’s time for the final “win and you’re in” race for the BC Classic as the Grade 1 Awesome Again Stakes takes place from SA. A group of eleven horses are looking to either capitalize on this final shot to get into the race, or to cement themselves as one of the top choices for the Classic, which will take place now in just a little over a month right here at SA.
Competitive Field Lined Up for The Woodward
A strong field of nine will be headed to the starting gate for what is listed by the game as being just the sixth running of the Grade 1 Woodward. The race debut in 2005, but supposedly took a long hiatus between 2006 and 2020 before reappearing in 2021 to be won by Splash Mountain.
