ARLINGTON MILLIONS: SECRETARIAT G1, BEVERLY D G1, MILIONS G1

Arlington has their biggest day of the year on Saturday with the Arlington Millions card, featuring 3 G1’s including the Millions, the Beverly D, and Secretariat, all on turf.

There are also 3 other turf stakes on the 12 race card. This is typically the time of year when the European invasion officially begins as the horses from across the pond start competing against the US horses, primarily on turf, in preparation for the Breeders Cup.

The Secretariat G1 is for 3 year olds going 10 furlongs. The 13 horse field includes 3 Europeans making their first start in the US. Currently Todd Pletcher’s Jack Milton by War Front is the morning line favorite.

The Beverly D goes 9.5 on turf for fillies and mares. Marketing Mix is the legitimate favorite coached by Tom Proctor, but Euro’s Duntle and Dank look to have some say in it. Top EP La Tia would like to have her own pace at 20-1.

The Millions G1 is for 3 and up 10f for a lot of money. About half of the 13 horse field are shippers from Europe looking to establish their dominance. Dale Romans and Richard Mandella have strong contenders to challenge them. Chad Brown’s Real Solution at 10-1 looks like the best value and will be hard to beat if he repeats his last race.

On Friday the Pick 9 Jackpot is up to $128k and that will likely continue into Saturday.
