Kasaqui, Dona Bruja invade for stakes

Four-Footed Fotos Kasaqui is likely to attempt to defend his 2016 Arlington Handicap victory.
ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, Ill. – Pending Saturday workouts at Keeneland, the high-powered Ignacio Correas duo of Kasaqui and Dona Bruja remain on track for Arlington stakes starts on July 8.
Kasaqui convincingly won the Grade 2 Wise Dan Stakes at Churchill Downs in his most recent start and will try to win the Arlington Handicap for the second year in a row. The 7-year-old Argentine import went on to finish second last summer in the Arlington Million.
Dona Bruja, also from Argentina, could be favored in the Modesty Handicap after her impressive victory in the Mint Julep Stakes at Churchill.
Correas, who has a string at Arlington this summer, said he plans to ship both horses by van on Thursday.
