Quintet of Stakes Offered on Monday’s 10-Race Card
At 0h05, on December 27, 2021 • By FAIR GROUNDS
If Sunday’s “Road to the Derby Kickoff Day” card wasn’t enough, Fair Grounds Race Course & Slots doubles up on the post-holiday cheer with five more stakes on Monday, December 27. The 10-race program begins at 2:05 p.m. The five added-money events comprise the “All Stakes” Late Pick Five (races 6-10).
“I don’t think any of the races have come up easy,” trainer Tom Amoss said of the Monday Fair Grounds programs. “I’ve got a lot of young horses entered. Usually when I am running that many, I can look at a spot and say yeah, I like my horse in here. I can’t do that with any of these races. These are some of the best horses I have for next year, so I don’t know if I should be worried about what I’ve got in my barn or just recognize that the Fair Grounds is a launching pad for a lot of really good horses.”
