Arlington does not typically run on Mondays, but they are racing today for the holiday.

The final race of the day is a stakes-quality allowance, sprinting over the polytrack.  It drew Shogood, who faces older despite the fact that he was nominated for a state-bred stakes.  It also features the return of Good Bye Greg — a fast horse who has been out of the starting gate for almost a year.

As both of those are speed demons, however, it makes the race ripe for an upset.
