Summit of Speed Preview Draws Top Local Sprinters
Four races comprise the 2014 Summit Preview, to be held on Saturday at Calder, which serves as the local prep for July's Summit of Speed sprint card. All four races carry a purse of $65,000 each and are run at six furlongs.
The U Can Do It Handicap kicks off the stakes action and is for fillies and mares. The Ponche Handicap follows and is for older horses. The three-year-olds take the stage thereafter, with the Leave Me Alone for fillies and the Unbridled to close out the stakes action of the day.
First post at Calder on Saturday is set for approximately 12:55 p.m. ET with the first leg of the All Stakes Pick 4 starting with Race 4 (2:30 p.m. ET).
