Chrome draws one hole. Art not smiling, but knows this going to be a tactical race.

Where will we be able to view the race?

I hope this race turns out to be as epic as it is promising. What a great field!

Yes! Will there be free live-streaming on CalRacing, or somewhere?

I’m so excited! What a great field to watch go head-to-head. Beholder vs. California Chrome is such a great matchup. I’d be pretty amused if Dortmund got his head under the wire first, even though I can’t think of too many circumstances in which it would happen.

Dortmund could be a beast in this race, my heart is torn between CC and Beholder. But if Hopportunity hits the wire first I wouldn’t cry! Going to be a great race. :yes:

Some talk that Keith and Kent have the live longshot in the 3 yr old Affirmed Stakes winner Dalmore. I am a bit skeptical.

Cantering in quite a nice time - a smidge over 2 minutes. He looked awesome.

What a horse!

A very clean race, no excuses for anyone.
CC is just that good :slight_smile:

I LOVE Beholder. Super Super nice mare, very nice run to hold onto 2nd

Where did Beholder finish?
