The stakes portion of the Arlington summer meet got underway Saturday with a well-matched renewal of the Grade 3 Hanshin Cup.
When all was said and done…the winning horse came as a surprise to most, though he will be familiar to anyone who follows the Chicago circuit closely. The winning trainer, long active in Chicago, got her long-awaited first graded stakes win. Head over to Picks and Ponderings, and catch up on the first stakes race of the meet!
