all in Triple Crown

Inaugurated in 2021, the $100,000 Gun Runner Stakes for 2-year-olds racing 1 1/16 miles at Fair Grounds is one of the youngest Road to the 2025 Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve prep races. Yet it’s already proved worthy as an important Kentucky Derby qualifier.

Journalism conquered a very strong Bob Baffert trio in the Grade 2 $200,000 Los Alamitos Futurity on Dec.

Coal Battle won the war against 2-1 favorite Speed King down the stretch by a half-length to win the $300,000 Springboard Mile Stakes, the marquee race for 2-year-olds at Remington Park on the track's final night of the 2024 season.

The Grade 2, $200,000 Los Alamitos Futurity Saturday at Los Alamitos provides five horses an opportunity for some points on the “Road to the Kentucky Derby” in the last graded stakes for 2-year-olds this year.

The Japan Road to the Kentucky Derby took a sideways turn Dec. 11 as a filly, Myriad Love, scored her third win without loss in the series’ second leg, the Zen-Nippon Nisai Yushun, at Kawasaki Racecourse.

Myriad Love earned 20 points to jump to the top of the leaderboard. Natural Rise, winner of the first race, finished fourth in the Zen-Nippon, adding four points to his previous 10 to stand in second place.
