  By Nynl Stables on August 1, 2025

  Top jockeys and purse money will make their way to MNR on Sunday for the annual WV Derby, a Grade 3 that has $400.000 at stake. Unfortunately, that amount represents a low point for the race (not counting the period when it was a free race), as it is a $100.000 deduction from where it had been since 2018, and much lower than the high point of $750.000.

He’d head to DMR on Saturday hoping to do a little better while cutting back to a sprint for the first time in eleven months. It would prove to be the right move, as the colt would not be denied in the stretch for the win!
