No Clear Favorite for The Baruch Handicap

Part of the Labor Day card at SAR will be the 17th running of The Baruch Handicap, a Grade 2 event on the inner turf course. The conditions of this race have been relatively consistent throughout its history, though it did debut at a mile and a half before changing to the current distance in 2012.

The Mint Million to Be Run for First Time on Monday

A new stake has been added to the schedule this year, and it is quite a good one. The Mint Million is debuting at KD, and presents a $1,000.000 Purse to be divided amongst the top four finishers. It will allow this track to get some of the attention on a busy Monday that will be the final day of the meets at both SAR and DMR.
