Racing Card: Now that the 2020 Breeders’ Cup Championships have come and gone, you can expect a fairly light weekend from the world of horse racing. In fact, there is just one stakes race of note this weekend, coming Saturday from Churchill Downs, as the Mrs. Revere Stakes is set for the late afternoon.
Let’s take a look at this $200,000 race for three-year-old fillies, running 1 1/16 miles on the turf, and don’t forget to check out all the fresh Kentucky Derby 2021 Early Futures, only available at classic online racebook JAZZSports.ag.

Hendy Woods has three wins and a second in six career starts, with career winnings of $203,100. Her highest speed rating (92) came in her victory at the Indiana Grand Stakes, a turf race. Her second-place finish came at the Edgewood Stakes at Churchill Downs, where she finished just 1 ¼ lengths back of Sharing, the winner of the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf. She will have Tyler Gaffalione on board on Saturday, a jockey who is on a roll right now. Make sure you think about this horse on your racing card.
Positive Danger has two wins in five career starts, with career winnings of $45,288. Her top speed rating (82) came in an Indiana Grand allowance race victory. Both of those wins have come at this same distance (1 1/16 miles) on turf, including that Indiana Grand win and a maiden race at Arlington Park. She will need to reach a new high in speed rating to win here, though.
Stunning Sky has three wins, two places and a show in 11 career starts, having earned $304,825 thus far. Her best speed rating (93) came at the Dueling Grounds Oaks, where she came in fourth. Her strength comes down the stretch, and her win at the Valley View Stakes (Grade III) over 1 1/16 miles gives her the strongest resume in this field. She came in second at the Lake Placid Stakes and the Saratoga Oaks. She has pushed stakes winners Micheline and Harvey’s Lil Goil in 2020, so she has shown the ability to compete here.
