Whitney Day races at Saratoga Race Course

Overview

Saratoga Race Course held its Whitney Day event, which featured several Grade 1 stakes races including the Whitney Stakes, the Test Stakes, the Fourstardave Stakes, and the Saratoga Derby.

In the Whitney Stakes, the reigning Horse of the Year, Sovereignty, secured a victory. After trailing the field for much of the race, the colt, trained by Bill Mott and ridden by Junior Alvarado, surged wide in the final furlong to overtake Nitrogen. This win earns the Godolphin homebred a position in the Breeders' Cup Classic.
