The remaining order of finish was Alternation in second, followed by Prayer for Relief, Socialsaul, Infrattini, Behold de Buy, Populist Politics, Malibu Glow, Awesome Bet, Dreaminofthewin, Meistersinger and Wally Van.

Cherokee Lord is the current 7-5 favorite for the upcoming $125,000 Remington Green, which is the first of two stakes leading up to the $400,000 Oklahoma Derby. Cherokee Lord is getting back on turf, site of all three of his wins, after finishing off the board in last weekend's Grade 2 Hawthorne Gold Cup. Rafael Bejarano has the mount for trainer Charlie Livesay.

In a rider change for the $400,000 Oklahoma Derby, jockey Elvis Trujillo will be aboard Malibu Glow. Eddie Castro had been named on the horse, who will break from post No. 1. Trujillo is in town to team with Savvy Supreme in the $250,000 Remington Park Oaks. He was aboard the filly last out when she won the Grade 3 Monmouth Park Oaks.

Remington Park will hold a morning workout and stable tour program on Sunday. It will begin at 8:45 a.m. Central. Chris Kotulak will host the Sunrise at Remington Park program, which will start in the grandstand and proceed to the backside for a stable area tour. Some of the horsemen participating in Sunday afternoon's stakes, which include $400,000 Oklahoma Derby and $250,000 Remington Park Oaks, will participate in Sunrise at Remington.

Chasing a pick six carryover of $86,557, bettors added $440,104 to the pick six pool on Sunday. Many tickets were still alive after favored Starlight Magic ($4.60) had an ideal trip under jockey Rafael Bejarano to win a maiden race over 6 1-2 furlongs, the fourth race and first leg. Starlight Magic stalked pacesetter Mary Contrary to early stretch before taking the lead, winning by 3 1-4 lengths. Starlight Magic is trained by Mark Glatt for Cory Wagner.

There is a pick six carryover of $86,557 for Sunday's card. The pick six covers the fourth through ninth races on a program that begins at 1 p.m. The only early scratches are in the seventh race. Laura Beasley, Vikkilee, El Nadia and Malusita will not start in a one-mile turf race for $28,000 to $32,000 claimers. The feature race is the $65,000 Louis Rowan Stakes for fillies and mares over 6 1-2 furlongs. Mildly Offensive (8-5 on the morning-line) and Home Sweet Aspen (9-5) are the leading contenders in a field of six.  

El Adelantado, the longest shot in the field, held off a late threat from 5-2 favorite Rauschenberg to win Saturday's fifth race and pay $118 to win. El Adelantado (Kayla Stra) won the first leg of a pick six that drew a somewhat Saturday modest pool of $162,028. Trained by Leonard Powell, El Adelantado, a 6-year-old gelding, won a $22,500 claimer at Hollywood Park in a 31-1 upset in July and had been fourth and fifth in optional claimers on turf at Hollywood Park and Del Mar following that race.
