It’s time to take a look at the Grade 3 Vagrancy Handicap, which is a sprint for older females that runs for the 20th time. This is traditionally a race at BEL, but like others, it runs at the Big A this year. Purses for the race have historically ranged between $150.000 and $200.000 over the last two decades, so not much has changed here other than the location of the race.

On Saturday at CD, we will have the 22nd running of the Louisville, which is a Grade 3 for older turf horses that like to run for a long time. The race began with a $100.000 purse and was at that point or similar until 2022 when it would reach $200.000. It’s present level of $250.000 will be the highest that has ever been at stake for the race.

Gaslight could have run in the KYD last week, as he would have had enough points to get in as an also eligible ahead of Fun Runner. However, his trainer, Mb Stables, cannot have more than three horses in the race, so the gelding was instead sent here to AQU for The Peter Pan.
