Saturday’s G3 Royal Delta Attracts Four Graded Winners

At 0h03, on February 11, 2026 By Gulfstream Park

Saturday’s $175,000 Royal Delta (G3) for fillies and mares at Gulfstream Park drew a field of eight including graded winners Shred the Gnar, Nothing Like You, Alpine Princess and defending champion Dazzling Move.

The 1 1/16-mile event, on the main track, is part of Saturday’s 12-race program. First race post is 12:20 p.m.

Shred the Gnar, who will be saddled by Brian Lynch and ridden by Mario Gutierrez, has raced only four times but has won three of those races and enters the Royal Delta off a victory Nov. 15 at Churchill Downs in the Chilukki (G3) at a mile.

Nothing Like You enters the race for trainer Brendan Walsh off a victory in September at Los Alamitos in the Dark Mirage while trained by Hall of Famer Bob Baffert. The 5-year-old was sold in November for $700,000. The mare won the Santa Anita Oaks (G2) in 2024 and the Starlet (G2) in 2023. Jorge Ruiz rides.

After winning the Royal Delta last winter, Dazzling Move failed to win another race in 2025 but finished second in the Phipps (G1) and Shuvee (G2). The Saffie Joseph Jr.-trained mare enters off two consecutive fifth-place finishes, including Jan. 24 in the Inside Information (G2). Tyler Gaffalione is named to ride.

Trainer Chad Brown has entered Senza Parole, a 4-year-old Gun Runner filly who steps up into graded company after victories against allowance company Jan. 15 at Gulfstream and November at Aqueduct. Miguel Vasquez is named.
