Stars are out for third leg of Classic Series

The third preliminary leg of The Classic Series (TCS) will go post ward on Saturday as a part of the Meadowlands Pace card. The stars are surely out in force for the last leg as the 39 horses entered in Classic events have compiled nearly $30 million in career earnings, including 11 with over a million dollars on their individual card.

The Classic Distaff (race two) pits familiar rivals Southwind Tempo, Darlin's Delight and My Little Dragon against seven other top flight mares

The accomplished pair of Mr. Feelgood and Total Truth lead the field of nine in the Pacing Classic, scheduled as the third race on the program.

Last year's Classic Oaks final winner Buck I St. Pat heads up the nine-mare field for the Classic Oaks in race five and Arch Madness will leave the starting gate with a one-length advantage on his nemesis, Corleone Kosmos, who has drawn the second tier in the 11-horse Trotting Classic (race 7).

The top point earners throughout the Series will compete for $250,000 in each of the four Classic Series divisions next Saturday, July 26, at the Meadowlands. (TCS)
