Episode 101 of Chicago Race of the Day jumps into the 8th race at Hawthorne on Saturday, December 14: a dirt route, N1X or $20,000 claiming, that drew a full field of twelve. There’s a horse coming in off a long layoff, an interesting pace scenario…not to mention, it’s getting to be that time of year when class gets a bit more flexible. So, all these things lead to a fascinating race.
