The Saturday card at Keeneland includes a trio of rich turf stakes: the $1.25 million Turf Mile (G1), the $750,000 First Lady (G1), and the $350,000 Woodford (G2).

Chad Brown ranks as the all-time leading trainer in the $500,000 Just a Game (G1) with six wins, all accomplished in the past seven years.

Saturday’s stakes action at Aqueduct got off to a surprising start, as Neecie Marie closed furiously to upset Whitebeam in the Beaugay (G3).

The theme of Saturday’s graded turf stakes at Aqueduct is double-handed trainers.

Trainer Chad Brown reiterated his prowess training female grass horses by saddling the top four finishers in Sunday's Matriarch (G1) at Del Mar.

While Whitebeam readily justified odds-on favoritism in the $100,000 Gallorette (G3), the 15.20-1 Never Explain crashed the $200,000 Dinner Party (G3) in course-record time at Pimlico.

Following up on an impressive debut over the July Course, Commissioning was similarly convincing on Newmarket’s Rowley Mile in Friday’s Rockfel (G2).
