From the first day of the Red Mile major stakes meet on Sept. 29 to the Futurity Day finale on Oct. 9, horses bred by Brittany Farms won an astounding seven stakes races — more than horses bred by any other farm.
It’s the place to see and be seen, and winning over the famous red clay surface makes it ever so special. The Lexington stakes stars are listed below. Brittany congratulates all of their connections, and wishes the best of luck to those shipping north to Ontario for the Breeders Crown.
