Everyone loves racing their two year olds, and on Saturday at SAR, we will get a chance to see a group of them who’s trainers feel have what it takes to be graded horses. Some will prove to be exactly that, and some we will never hear from again at this level. The gate is full with twelve horses that will contest the Grade 3 Sanford and this race has seen some highly successful past winners.

The Diana Isn’t a BC Race But It Very Much Seems Like It
It’s the first Saturday of the SAR meet, and wow, do we have a treat! The Grade 1 Diana is taking place and the horses that are taking part are very impressive. This is not a place for up and comers, as the entrant with the lowest career earnings has still made about $500.000. La Terrifiant is here, and so to is Painville. You can make anyone in here a headliner.
