Entries have been drawn for the 11 race card, which begins at 6:00 PM Eastern time on Saturday. The races have full fields except for the Fleur de Lis, which only drew a field of 6. The featured Stephen Foster appears to be very competitive.

Churchill has taken great steps to make this evening a success, including offering purses of $95,000 for the first two maiden races and even more surprising, having a purse of $101,000 for race 3, an optional claimer, greater than the President of the United Arab Emirates Cup, a $100,000 stakes race that appears later in the card.

If you are planning to watch the entire card of racing, you might need to brew a full pot of coffee, since the final race doesn't begin until 11:16 PM.

Love the evening racing, but then it's only 10:16 here.

If you are up late and watching, you might be interested in race 10, a Grade 1 race for Arabians. While the times are much slower than for thoroughbreds, the Arabians are beautiful to watch, with their long tails flowing as they run.
