Here's a Graded Stake race with major Breeders Cup implications!!!

The Grade 3 Washington Park Handicap at Arlington Park on the poly today.

They went blistering fractions of 25.87 and 52.42.

The winner was claimed for 20K in May of this year.

The second place finisher raced on the Mountaineer Park dirt last time out .. and ran a stellar 64 Beyer.

Exciting stuff.

Obviously he's not going to go, but he's a neat horse either way.

Sprint, Dirt Mile, or Marathon?

No more Win and You're In. Lose (Fail to hit the board) and You're Out would be much better.

The big joke today is that even with today's win the horse's career earnins are under $300K so like the owner in the winner's circle was going to say "Hey guys the other 600K is on me!!"

What a joke that Win and You're In.
