Ten To Run in QE II Challenge Cup

The biggest race of the day on Saturday in our virtual racing world will be the 20th running of the QE II Challenge Cup, a Grade 1 race that sends three year old fillies nine furlongs around the turf course at KEE. The $750.000 that is offered represents a new high for the stake, as it had been at $600.000 for the last two years, and lower amounts before that.

Untidy Cleans Up in The Spinster

On Sunday, a spot in the BC Distaff would be clinched as a field of twelve took part in the Grade 1 Spinster at KEE. After nine furlongs on the main track, it would be a horse that ran in the BC Fillies and Mares Turf getting the job done, as Untidy would grab the win by a little more than a length.
