The final weekend of January will have plenty of exciting races, and that will include at OP where 10 points for the KYO are ready to be handed out to the winner of the 12th running of The Martha Washington. It’s an ungraded stake, but has all of the prestige of anything that is graded.
Ungraded
Stunning Stretch Drive Wins Kenner Stakes for Kid Commander
Last year, Kid Commander finished third in the BC Turf Sprint, so that would instantly make him the one to beat here in the Kenner Stakes. You would have thought so, anyway, as our pick to win the race would go off at odds of 6/1.
Wily Veteran Banshee Star Wins Bradley Stakes
He may be eight years old and a veteran of 54 races, but Banshee Star is still getting the job done! Since arriving with Calia Stable, via a $16.000 claim in July, the gelding has won four of eight starts, and the Bradley Stakes makes their first stake win together.

Kid Commander Faces Tough Crowd in Kenner Stakes
A field of eight will go to post for the 16th running of the Kenner Stakes, which is a turf sprint for older horses.
