Happy Sunday everyone, and I hope that everyone not in the states of Arizona and Hawaii moved their clocks forward an hour early this morning, because we now have the sun setting an hour later. Also, it means that Santa Anita appears to be starting their card today at 4 pm Eastern, and their featured race the China Doll Stakes will be at 7:11 pm Eastern time today.
Happy Saturday and hopefully everyone is doing well out there wherever you are, as today we will catch the signature race of the 2023-2024 Tampa Bay Downs meet as it is Tampa Bay Derby Day. We have 10 three-year-olds entered for today’s race which will award 50 points to the winner, essentially giving the winner a position in the gate for the Kentucky Derby on the first Saturday in May.

f it’s Tuesday, that means it’s a trip to Parx, but for possibly the first time in 2024, we are not going to look at the sixth race at Parx.

This one is the City of Brotherly Love Stakes for three-year-olds going a mile and seventy yards.
Today, we head to one of the newer tracks in North America as the QPW heads to Youngstown, Ohio for the first time to Mahoning Valley Race Course for their featured eighth race, which is the OTBO Sales Graduate Race Stakes going six furlongs.
