San Felipe Stakes March 12, 2016 Preview

The San Felipe Stakes is a Derby Qualifying Race. The winner gets 50 points, place is 20, show is 10 and the 4th Spot is 5.  Mor Spirit is currently 5th and Exaggerator 11th on the leaderboard.  Uncle Lino is 33rd and I Will Score is 10 spots below him, so they both need a win to qualify as time dwindles. 

This is a very good field. Horses are listed below.  When you click on the profile, you can take a look at the entrant's prior races (video) and stats.
