It would be a good day for Maxmillion Farm in the Hirsch Stakes as each of his horses stepped up and ran very well, giving him a 1-2 finish. In the top spot would be Empire World, a filly with an excellent winning percentage and she is able to make that even better here.

Expert Eye is BC Bound After Crosby Stakes Win
Expert Eye came into the race after winning the Grade 3 Bold Venture at WO, and there would be plenty of reasons to like him in the Crosby because of it. However, he had not been consistent lately, so if you were not convinced that he would follow that up well, that was a legitimate concern, too.

Maxmillion Farm Has Two Strong Entries in Hirsch Stakes
The field may not be large, but that does not mean there isn’t anything to race for on Sunday in the Grade 1 Hirsch Stakes. Points for the BC Distaff are on the line, as well as the $300.000 purse, and the trainers entered have to like their chances seeing only a field of six.
Get Set for Crosby Stakes At DMR
Points for the BC Sprint are up for grabs on Saturday in the 18th running of the Crosby Stakes. It will bring together veteran sprinters that have been successful at what they do and a handful of three year olds who, dare we say, failed in their quest to win a TC race, and think they can make a shorter distance their Plan B.

Naples Scores an Impressive CCA Oaks Win
The field was strong for the 18th running of The CCA Oaks was quite strong. One would expect it to be, but this race had a special level of excitement to it with so many TC runners taking part in it. This makes what was essentially a two length win for Naples all the more impressive.
TC Runners Highlight The CCA Oaks Field
The CCA Oaks will run for the 18th time on Saturday, but I will venture to say that this will be the first time in its history that nearly half of the field ran in at least one of the Triple Crown races.
Historic Win for La Terrifiant in The Diana
History was made in The Diana on Saturday. La Terrifiant, the race winner on yielding turf, would become the highest female earner in the history of the game, surpassing Darling Harbour for that distinction.
