First Look: See the likely fields for 'other' weekend graded stakes

It only seems as though the Breeders' Cup is all that is happening in racing this week.

There are, of course, other graded stakes this weekend: two at Del Mar on the Breeders' Cup Saturday undercard and two at Belmont Park.

The Breeders' Cup pre-entries were announced last week, and the entries will be drawn later Monday. So here is an early look at the fields for the weekend's other graded stakes.

Saturday

Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance (G2), Del Mar, 1 5/8 miles, 3-year-olds and up

This will be Tizamagician's first try at 1 5/8 miles, but he has won at 1 1/2 miles twice this year, in the Tokyo City Cup (G3) and the Cougar II Handicap (G3). Lone Rock has is 5-for-7 this year, with seconds in the other two starts. His lone graded-stakes victory was in this year's Brooklyn (G2), where he beat Tizamagician by 11 1/4 lengths.

Goldikova (G2), Del Mar, 1 mile (turf), fillies and mares, 3-year-olds and up

Princess Grace is 3-for-3 this year, all in graded stakes, and she beat Dalika in the Kentucky Downs Ladies Turf (G3). Going Global has a 6: 5-1-0 record this year, most recently winning the Del Mar Oaks (G1).

Turnback The Alarm (G3), Belmont Park, 1 1/8 miles, fillies and mares, 3-year-olds and up

Miss Marissa has a 5: 2-1-1 record this year, including a win over Gibberish in the Delaware Handicap (G2). Jilted Bride has finished in the money in all 12 career starts and will make her first graded-stakes appearance.

Sunday

Nashua (G3), Belmont Park, 1 mile, 2-year-olds

Judge Davis graduated on second try a 1 1/16 miles last out. Midnight Worker returns to dirt after finishing fourth in the Futurity (G3) on the Belmont turf. He is the only one of the probables with graded-stakes experience.
