A pair of stakes for older Florida-breds, the Sunshine Turf and Sunshine Sprint, highlight Saturday's 11-race program at Gulfstream Park. The Turf is a real handicapping dilemma matching a full and extremely wide open field. The Sprint features the return of last year's winner, Damon's Mound, who figures to be one of the shortest-priced horses on the card.

Saturday (Jan. 17) night’s fourth race at The Meadowlands is, by racetrack standards, ordinary. But the man the race honors was anything but.

In 2020, her second year training, Cherie DeVaux sent Bayerness out to a sixth-place Kentucky Oaks finish. DeVaux hasn't had a classic start since, but with two horses to run Saturday at Fair Grounds in the Lecomte Stakes and two more, including favored Atropa, in the Silverbulletday, DeVaux can realistically hope to end that drought.

Kentucky Derby credentials don't burst forth from the past performances of the 11 runner in the Lecomte, but that might not be the case after the Grade 3, $250,000 race is contested Saturday at Fair Grounds. The 1 1/16-mile contest has a post time of 6 p.m. Central, is the last of 13 races, and the cashing leg of an all-stakes pick five.

In his stakes debut, Vodka Vodka finished seven lengths behind the star older horse Nysos in the Pincay at 1 1/16 miles on dirt. There is nothing similar to Nysos in Saturday's $175,000 Unusual Heat Turf Classic for California-breds at Santa Anita, Vodka Vodka's next assignment.
