Six-race Juvenile Showcase attracts 187 nominees

MIAMI – A total of 187 2-year-olds have been nominated for the six races to be decided on Saturday’s Juvenile Showcase program at Gulfstream Park West. Topping the lists are the undefeated Mr. Jordan, who figures to be the heavy favorite in the one-mile Smooth Air Stakes, and Richard the Great, an impressive winner of his only two starts, who is nominated to the six-furlong Buffalo Man by trainer Ralph Nicks.

The Juvenile Showcase, which will be drawn Wednesday, highlights the final weekend of the inaugural Gulfstream Park West meeting, which concludes Sunday.

◗ There will be a guaranteed jackpot of $250,000 up for grabs in the Rainbow 6 when racing resumes Wednesday. If there is not a single winning ticket in the Rainbow 6 through Saturday, there will be a mandatory payout of the entire pool on closing day.
