The Fillies Are Back on the KYO Trail! The Honeybee Nearly Fills
Last week, only six horses ran in the first 50-point KYO race of the season, the Alexandra at FG. There would be five horses that ran against the boys in The Risen Star, at the same race track on the same day. So this made it very interesting to see what would happen “the week after”.

Remember This Name: Creepy Risk Impresses in Pasadena Stakes
The Pasadena Stakes was an interesting race in that it did not feature any big headliners but plenty of up and coming talent seen throughout the starting gate. The question would be which one of them would step up to the task, and the answer would be one of the longest shots on the board.
