AUBURN, Wash. – With Washington Cup Day and its six stakes less than a week away, there’s no added-money event on the holiday program Monday at Emerald Downs, though there’s some star power in the co-featured eighth and ninth races. The 10-race card begins at 2 p.m. Pacific.The eighth race, a first-level $32,000 optional claimer for older horses at 1 1/16 miles, attracted a field of seven, with a 3-year-old, Clear to Canada, among the leading contenders. Though he has just one career victory, Clear to Canada served notice with a fifth-place finish in the $75,000 Emerald Derby in his last start Aug. 15. The only 3-year-old in the race, the late-running Clear to Canada will be ridden by Inoel Beato for trainer Mike Puhich.Puhich also will saddle Exclusive Eagle, a hard-knocking 7-year-old who finished fifth in his last start, 3 1/2 lengths behind the winner, in a one-mile, $50,000 optional claimer. Exclusive Eagle will be reunited with jockey Gallyn Mitchell, who was up when Exclusive Eagle finished third in the restricted Muckleshoot Tribal Classic last September.Emancipated, a two-time winner this summer, figures to set the pace after chasing some fast sprinters in his last two starts. The Robbie Baze trainee has been first or second in 4 of 8 starts at Monday’s distance. Juan Gutierrez will ride.One Quick Brew, Air Pegasus, Dress Code, and Medicine Creek complete the field.Tiger’s Mistress is the horse to beat in the ninth race, a six-furlong allowance for 2-year-old fillies that have never won twice. After a runner-up finish in her debut July 2, she returned two weeks later to score an impressive maiden victory, running 5 1/2 furlongs in 1:04.40. She’ll be ridden by Tony Gutierrez for Tim McCanna, who is closing in on his 10th Emerald Downs training title.Ms Moscow Mattie and Class Included are the other top contenders in a field that also includes recent maiden winners Debbie’s Ferrari, Zolazane, and Renaissance Queen.Ms Moscow Mattie defeated Tiger’s Mistress in the July 2 race before finishing a distant last in the Angie C Stakes in her second start for trainer Vann Belvoir. She’ll be ridden by Beato, and Gutierrez has the assignment on Class Included, a Jim Penney-trained runner who finished a sharp second behind the speedy Kids Cooler in her only start Aug. 14.After a three-day break, racing will resume Friday, when fans will receive free general admission.
