It\u2019s the biggest weekend of the season for 3-year-olds as Emerald Downs\u2019<\/a> presents an important stakes doubleheader for sophomores on Aug. 13-14.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

On Saturday, Aug. 13, fillies race 1-1\/8 miles in the $65,000 Washington Oaks. And Sunday, Aug. 14, the males take their turn in the $65,000 Emerald Downs Derby at 1-1\/8 miles.<\/div>\n<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/p>\n

The 3-year-old filly division has been a scramble all season with three stakes yielding three different winners\u2014Class Included in the 6-\u00bd-furlong Seattle Handicap, Elusive Noise in the one-mile Irish Day Handicap and Carrabelle Harbor in the 1-1\/16-mile Kent Handicap.<\/div>\n<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/p>\n

Hall of Fame trainer Jerry Hollendorfer (his formal induction is Friday, Aug. 12) has nominated a pair of hundred-grand earners to the Washington Oaks. Alec\u2019s Moon (11-4-2-1-$125,670) won two stakes in Portland including the $82,000 Portland Meadows Oaks and a victory over boys in the $32,000 PM Derby.<\/div>\n<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/p>\n

Zayda has assumed control of the 3-year-old division with triumphs in the one-mile Pepsi Cola Handicap (via DQ) and 1-1\/16-mile Seattle Slew Handicap. The son of Bluegrass Cat is improving with distance and should relish the extra ground in the Derby.<\/div>\n<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/p>\n
