CYPRESS, Calif. (Sept. 24, 2024) — Four stakes for juveniles — including a pair for Golden State Series eligibles – highlight the upcoming Winter Thoroughbred meet at Los Alamitos.
The six-day season is scheduled to begin Friday, Dec. 6 and continue through Sunday, Dec. 15. Racing will be conducted on a Friday-Sunday basis (Dec. 8-10 and 15-17) both weeks. Post time will be 12:30 p.m.
The two state-bred stakes for juveniles will be run at one mile. The $100,000 Soviet Problem – for fillies – will be offered Sunday, Dec. 8 while the $100,000 King Glorious will be run Sunday, Dec. 15. Both are for horses bred or sired in California.
The $200,000-guaranteed Starlet, a Grade II for 2-year-old fillies, will be renewed for the 11th time at Los Alamitos Saturday, Dec. 7 one week before the Grade II, $200,000-guaranteed Los Alamitos Futurity, which was captured by Wynstock in 2023.
Won a year ago by Nothing Like You, the Starlet – like the Futurity – will be contested at 1 1/16 miles.
