Top Stakes Races Fourth Week of July: Saturday, July 29th – Sunday, July 30th, 2023
Jim Dandy Stakes | Grade 2
1 1/8 miles dirt – 3 year olds
Saratoga Racetrack | Saratoga Springs, New York
Sunday, July 29th, 2023
Connections for four of the most highly regarded 3 year old colts in North America have confirmed for the Jim Dandy. Brad Cox puts the saddle on two of them, Hit Show and Angel of Empire.
Of the two, Angel of Empire will attract the most action. The favorite could end up Todd Pletcher trained Forte, but Disarm will attract action for sure. The Steve Asmussen runner won the Grade 2 Matt Winn with a solid speed rating.

Alfred G. Vanderbilt Handicap | Grade 1
6 furlongs dirt – 4 year olds & up
Del Mar Racetrack, Del Mar, California
Saturday, July 29th, 2023
Linda Rice trained Gun It hopes to make the leap from the allowance ranks to a Grade 1. If Gun It repeats the effort in the last, a victory with a great speed rating, who knows? Maybe, the Rice runner pulls off the forward leap.
Synthesis, Dean Deliver, Gunite, and Elite Power are the other four confirmed runners. Elite Power will go off at under even money. The Bill Mott trainee has won 5 straight, including taking home the Breeders’ Cup Sprint last November.

San Diego Handicap | Grade 2
1 1/16 miles dirt – 3 year olds 7 up
Del Mar Racetrack, Del Mar, California
Saturday, July 29th, 2023
As it stands now, the San Diego is shaping up as one of this year’s top handicap races. Bob Baffert sends three to the gate: Defunded, Taiba, and Country Grammar.
All three are well accomplished equines and can win this. Richard Mandella’s Royal Ship, Express Train from the John Shirreffs’ barn, and Doug O’Neil charge Slow Down Andy can also take the top prize.

Bing Crosby Stakes | Grade 1
6 furlongs dirt – 3 year olds & up
Del Mar Racetrack, Del Mar, California
Saturday, July 29th, 2023
Only two are confirmed for the Grade 1 Bing Crosby. The Chosen Vron hails from the J. Eric Kruljac barn.
Even after others enter, The Chosen Vron may go off the chalk. The Kruljac runner has won seven straight. For sure, this is a step up but Kruljac is a cagey horseman.
The other confirmed runner, Dallas Stewart trained Hoist the Gold, heads into this off an allowance victory at Ellis Park in the last. Hoist the Gold had been running against equines like Cody’s Wish. So this is a step down in class.

Bowling Green Stakes | Grade 2
1 1/38 miles turf – 4 year old fillies & mares
Saratoga Racetrack | Saratoga Springs, New York
Sunday, July 30th, 2023
Cristophe Clement is going for it in this Sunday’s Bowling Green. Clement saddles two contenders in Soldier Rising and Tawny Port.
Graham Motion has a contender in The Grey Wizard. Mark Casse trained Strong Quality should run better than it did in the Manhattan. Daunt, Master Piece, and Verstappen should also break from the gate.
