Others in the race are Foneda, Royal Lady, Prahs, Aral, Monarch, Ted Mosquero and Young Geordie. The supporting event is the six-furlong fifth race in which half a dozen are to match strides, while the fourth event is an allowance test for three-year-olds, and some of the better class horses housed here of their age are to meet over the six-furlong distance. Only one distance race is programmed and it is to be run as the seventh race.
