Grade III

Field of Six for Kent Stakes

Part of the action at DEL on Saturday will be the 17th running of the Kent Stakes, a Grade 3 event for three olds on the turf. It is a race that was once held in much higher regard, going for a $500.000 purse for it’s first two years, but then the reductions began happening. The low point would be $150.000.

Sister Crespi the Likely Favorite in DEL Oaks

This Saturday, we get to enjoy some racing from DEL as a field of six fillies goes to post for the 17th running of the DEL Oaks. This has never been a race to attract a large field for some reason, as in checking the field sizes for the last ten years, either five or six horses were entered.
