It’s not in Chicago… it’s not a million… sheesh…  but here’s the field for the Arlington Stakes, a mile and a sixteenth test on the lush Louisville lawn, and we get a field of six for this one.  Let’s go to the outside gate and give Boo Boo top billing for this race.  He won the American (GIII) at SA last out and actually drops a pound of impost.  Claimed for a mere $15.000, he’s proven to be a able to run with the best on the grass.  We are talking stakes races, so Mb Stables has to be in the conversation and State Apples should be in the thick of it today.  Second in the Whittingham (GII) at SA and he won his only other start going a mile on the SoCal lawn… he fits well here.  I like Oh Brother as well, but it’s a six-horse field so let’s roll with this duo and see how we do… besides, The Card has him on top. 

Here’s The Field –
