It’s time now to take a look at The Harrods Creek, which is one of the newer additions to the schedule at CD. The race runs for the third time, debuting in 2021 for a $275.000 purse where it was won by Mr Frost. We see an increase to the purse level this year, so perhaps an official graded designation will be in the future for this race.

Up She Flew Headlines the Field in Dogwood
Taking a look at the action at CD on Saturday, we get started with a race that recovered its graded designation after losing that status for six years. This is a race that has been very different throughout its history, with multiple distances having been run, and then originating as a Grade 3 and before losing that classification in 2016.
Fractious And Beach Xaar Look to Continue PRX Dirt Mile Dominance

Retaliate Looks to Stay Scorching Hot in Gallant Bob
There’s plenty of incentive for sprinters to make their way to PRX on Saturday, as the 17th running of the Gallant Bob Stakes takes place. This race has not always had the prestige as it now does, beginning as an ungraded race for a $150.000 purse. That is something that would change quickly, and it would officially become a graded race in 2013.
