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.
