It’s a big weekend for two year olds at the Big A on Saturday, as races that award points for both the KYO and the KYD will take place. Here, we will look at the fillies side in the 20th running of the Grade 2 Demoiselle. 10 points for the KYO will be heading to the winner, so while it’s not the biggest prep for the race, we all know that a few points could mean the difference between running in the race or sitting on the also eligible list.

Late Run by Investment Center Pays Off in Clark
Before the Clark even began, we were surprised to learn that all three of the Fractious runners that were scheduled would be scratched for the race. This would leave us with a field of eight on a fast track, so it’s not as if rain caused the scratches.
Reorganize Hangs on to Light Up the Board in Mrs Revere
While we certainly expect every graded stake to be highly competitive, the field for the Mrs Revere was interesting because most of the fillies came into the race hot, either riding a winning streak of multiple races, or simply being on great form. Since June, Reorganize has been running well, but still would go off as a 38/1 longshot.
