Good Memories Puts on a Clinic in Rushaway Stakes Rout
The Rushaway Stakes appeared on the schedule for the first time and as we move forward, this should be a race that continues to attract a lot of interest. A strong field of took part, and it would be one of the more lightly raced runners, Good Memories, getting the win and doing so by two lengths.
Avatar Edges Pink Attack at Wire to Win Latonia Stakes
Avatar came into the running of the Latonia Stakes after running well in a handful of NY-bred races but was arguably about to have the toughest challenge of her career here since the IA Oaks last Summer. In a field that seemed well-balanced, she went off at odds of 10/1 and would reward her supporters and trainer Smokey Stover with a winning effort.
Mike La Rosa LA Derby Gets Strong Field It Deserves
Last week, the game made the admirable decision to honor Mike LaRosa, a man who should need no introduction to those reading the SRF. After all, if it were not for him, we wouldn’t have a SimRacing Form. FG was his home track, and now his legacy will live on with the LA Derby.

Looking for Someone to Shine in Latonia Stakes
Like the Rushaway Stakes, the Latonia Stakes is appearing on the schedule for the first time since 2020. This race does not have a lot of history within our game, being only run twice, and for purses of $75.000 and then $100.000.

Rushaway Stakes Returns with Increased Purse
Returning to the schedule in 2024 will be the Rushaway Stakes, a race that was last held in 2020 and was run inconsistently since 2006. The main reason for that was probably the purse level, as on a couple occasions, it went for under $100.000 and then was exactly that every other year.
