Part of the excitement on the undercard of the KYD will be the CD, a long sprint for older horses with a generous $500.000 purse. This race will run for the 18th time, but it will be just the third time that it has been classified as a Grade 1.
Grade I
It’s Time for The 2021 KYD
It is the race that we all have in mind when we took on this journey to become virtual horse racing trainers. On Saturday, we will either see one trainer achieve this incredible accomplishment for the first time, or we will see someone add to their legacy. Others will watch, hoping to one day make the field or to return to it.
