Quite a Day at the Races for Kirkwood

Graded stakes winner RECEPTA closed out her winning ways last year taking the Fasig-Tipton De La Rose Stakes at Saratoga followed directly by  the Noble Damsel Stakes – Gr. 3 at Belmont. The Breeders’ Cup was not her cup of tea. The 5 year old Speightstown mare is getting going in 2016 with a third today in the Beaugay Stakes – Gr. 3 also at Belmont. She was had all sorts of trouble in the race. Watch for her next time. She is owned by Owner: Phillips Racing Partnership and Pam Gartin and was bred by John W. Phillips & Hank Snowden. She has earned better than $466,000.

Also at Belmont, HIT IT ONCE MORE, a Hard Spun  3 year old colt,  racing for August Dawn Farm, won a  62000 n1x allowance race. He was bred by JMJ Stable and has earned just a tick under $100,000.
