Speed figures: These are last week's 20 fastest stakes winners

Wicked Django was the longest shot on the board in the Grade 2 Autumn on Saturday at Woodbine, but that didn't stop the Rodney Barrow trainee from not only winning, but also earning a 102 Brisnet Speed Rating, the highest of the week. Toward the rear early, he got a sharp pace in front of him for the 1 1/8-mile distance. He launched a menacing rally around the far turn, led in upper stretch, and ran on to win by 1 1/4 lengths. The effort also earned him a 92 Beyer Speed Figure.

The highest Beyer of the week, 100, went to Kennedy Road (G2) winner Nobals. Winner of the 2023 Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint, the Larry Rivelli trainee had not won since though he ran fourth in both a top-shelf allowance at Saratoga and in the Kentucky Downs Turf Sprint (G2). In the Kennedy Road, a six-furlong sprint on the Woodbine Tapeta, he prompted odds-on favorite Patches O'Houlihan and outslugged him to win by three quarters of a length. The win also earned him a 100 Brisnet Speed Rating, the second highest of the week.
