The stakes season at Arlington resumes this Saturday with the Grade 3 Arlington Classic.  It is the first of three graded turf races for open-company sophomores, a series which continues through the American Derby (G3) and the Secretariat Stakes (G1).  It drew a field of ten horses — some locals, some shippers — trying to get the summer turf season off to the right start.

Head over to Picks and Ponderings, read my preview of Saturday’s Arlington Classic, and let me know your thoughts in the comments!
