Duppy Story Looks to Stay Hot in Hanshin

The Hanshin was formerly a part of the schedule at AP, running there in most years between 2005 and 2019 as a Grade 3 with a purse of either $100.000 or $150.000. After being dormant for a couple years, the race was added to the schedule here at CD, and for a much larger purse.

Grand Field to Love in Wise Dan

We’re heading to the grass on Saturday at CD for the 21st running of the Wise Dan, which is for older horses and runs for a $500.000 purse. That purse amount represents a high for the race, and is double what the race ran for in 2003. Through time, we’ve seen some great horses get the win here, including Billy Nomates, Stealth Fighter, Seven Years and Sir Tom among others.
