This Week's Top Races

The two races you'll want to tune in to this week are the $500,000 Hollywood Starlet Stakes and the $150,000 Bayakoa Stakes, both going down this Saturday at Betfair Hollywood Park.

Carrying a purse of $500,000, the annual Grade 1 Hollywood Starlet Stakes consists of a 1 1/16 Mile race, contested on synthetic cushion track. This is the last major race of the year for two-year-old fillies, many of whom competed in this year's Breeders' Cup Juvenile. The filly to watch come post time is Rosalind, who's finished in the money in all races she's run this year, including a third-place-finish at the Breeders' Cup Juvenile (G1). This chestnut filly has a competitive edge and seems to be improving with every race she runs.

The $150,000 Bayakoa Stakes will also be taking place at Betfair Hollywood Park this Saturday. The Grade 2 event is open to fillies and mares aged three and older and is contested on synthetic dirt at a distance of 1 1/16 Miles. It's not surprising that one of the pre-race favourites happens to be Beholder, who not only won this year's Breeders' Cup Distaff, but has finished first in all but two races this year (in which she came in second). With four Grade 1 wins under her belt and after shamelessly crushing the competition at the Breeders' Cup, her return to the track is something you won't want to miss.
