Spankersville Should Be the Favorite to Win Woodward Again
On Saturday at the Big A, we will have either the seventh or the 22nd running of the Woodward, which is for three year olds and upwards on the main track. The confusion can come in due to the fact that the game separates the 2006-2020 editions run at SAR from the regular Woodward history.
