Laurel Park will run four $100,000 stakes Saturday – two at six furlongs and two at 1 1/16 miles in divisions for males and females. The undeniable star of the afternoon is Late Night Pow Wow, who in 10 career starts is a half-length shy of perfection after being beaten in her third career start last April. A 4-year-old daughter of leading West Virginia stallion Fiber Sonde, Late Night Pow Wow was owned by trainer Javier Contreras for her first nine starts. Following consecutive victories in the Grade 3 Charles Town Oaks and West Virginia Cavada Breeders Classic, Contreras sold her to the Breeze Easy LLC of energy industry executives Mike Hall and Sam Ross, who have West Virginia roots and have made some major Thoroughbred purchases the last several years. Late Night Pow Wow was shipped from the friendly confines of Charles Town to debut for her new connections, romping in the mud by five lengths in the Willa On the Move at Laurel. While she paid a generous $9.60 that day, Late Night Pow Wow will be a much, much shorter price Saturday in the $100,000 What a Summer Stakes at the same six-furlong distance. Contreras, just as he did prior to the Willa on the Move, sent Late Night Pow Wow to Laurel for her final pre-race work. “She had two nice works, including the last one at Laurel, and has done some pretty serious training,” Contreras said. “She handles the Laurel track very well.” According to Contreras, a good effort by Late Night Pow Wow in the What a Summer will set her up for next month’s Grade 3, $250,000 Barbara Fritchie. Late Night Pow Wow is 3 for 3 at the Fritchie’s seven-furlong distance. Since buying Late Night Pow Wow, Breeze Easy has sent Contreras two other horses, including Devine Mischief, whom he also plans to start in the What a Summer. Devine Mischief is coming off a rallying head victory in the Ruling Angel Stakes at Woodbine. “I think she’s a decent little filly,” Contreras said. “I’m not sure she is on the same level as my other one, but I like her.” Also in the field is fellow Charles Town shipper Moonlit Song, a winner of 13 of 23 starts for owner-trainer Timothy Grams. Moonlit Song finished second by a half-length to Late Night Pow Wow in the Cavada Breeders Classic and was third in the Willa On the Move. In the other stakes on the card: Nellie Morse Timeless Curls and Face It will square off in this 1 1/16-mile race for fillies and mares. Timeless Curls has rapidly gone through her allowance conditions for trainer Dale Capuano by winning four of her last five races. She successfully moved up in class again in her last start, closing resolutely to win a third-level optional claimer by a head. “She’s been real good for us,” Capuano recently said. “In her last race, she was very game.” Face It could go favored for trainer Kiaran Mclaughlin off back-to-back maiden and allowance wins going a mile at Aqueduct. She is a half-sister to three-time Grade 1 winner It’s Tricky, who won 8 of 14 starts for McLaughlin and Godolphin, who owns and bred Face It. Native Dancer Todd Pletcher has the likely favorite in this 1 1/16-mile race in Bonus Points, who has done his best running at Laurel and has a 3-3-0 record from six starts over the local main track. Be warned that betting on Bonus Points is not for the faint of heart. In his last Maryland start, he dropped 20 lengths off the pace before gathering himself and finishing with a prolonged bid to defeat third-level optional-claiming company by a length. Rich Daddy is expected to ship in from South Florida for trainer Eddie Kenneally. Late-running Rich Daddy made the lead in the stretch of the $196,000 Claiming Crown Jewel but was run down by Aztec Sense and beaten a neck. Aztec Sense has won 10 of 11 starts dating to August 2017. Trainer John Terranova II will ship in Stan the Man, who had won three of his last four starts before finishing sixth, beaten 5 1/4 lengths, in the Cigar Mile. Fire Plug Do Share, Cautious Giant, and Sheikh of Sheiks are the top players in this six-furlong sprint. Do Share shipped to Laurel in December to make his first start in eight months and his debut for Mike Maker. He finished second behind the Kentucky-based longshot Uncontested, who won by five lengths, earned a 100 Beyer Speed Figure, and paid $34. Do Share should benefit from having had a race. Cautious Giant, a $16,000 claim at Gulfstream Park in September 2017 who has since earned $190,000 for owner Mark Moshe, has been sent to Kieron Magee for the winter. The well-traveled 8-year-old ran an honest race in his first Maryland start to finish fourth, beaten 1 1/2 lengths, in the Dave’s Friend Stakes in late December. Sheikh of Sheikhs weakened to finish fifth as the favorite behind Uncontested and Do Share last time out but had previously looked good winning two optional claimers for Lacey Gaudet after being claimed for $25,000 at Saratoga.
