Chalk Up Another 50-Point Win for Mb Stables in The Rebel
The Rebel was the final 50 point race of the season, and out of the six of them that were run, Mb Stables came away with four wins. Two of them were in the same race, but certainly an impressive clip. In the Rebel, Smokin Luka would earn the distinction of being that fourth winner, giving him four of the top five on the leaderboard.
Wide Open Feel for The Rebel
The Rebel is the final 50 point KYD of the season. After this, we’re doubling the stakes and moving into the 100 point races, other than a few exceptions. There are six weeks left in the KYD chase, and some trainers have to be very happy with where they stand right now.
