Interesting Question
They say that Saturday's Whitney will include 7 Grade 1 winners. I can't recall a race with that in my memory. I was thinking maybe a BC race might have, but not even sure about that. I'm not sure a non-BC race ever had 7 Grade 1 Stakes winners in the field. Actually, I'm not sure a BC race had 7 Grade 1 winners in a field.
Anybody got a better memory than me ? I know they've had 4, 5 and 6.

Every starter in the 1988 BC Classic was a grade 1 winner going in to the race. Alysheba, Seeking the Gold, Personal Flag, Forty Niner, Waquoit, Cutlass Reality, Slew City Slew, and Cryptoclearance.

I was thinking more of non-BC and non-TC races. I think some of the reason we don't see this much, if at all, is that people avoid running their good horses against others because of location (East Coast/West Coast/KY) or just because they want the best shot to win. They don't want to run against fields like this until the BC.

Woodward will have 9 G1 winners when the 7 from here comeback along with the new G1 winner Liam's Map and then Palace Malice joins the party.
