Del Mar is serving up a graded stakes doubleheader that could have Breeders’ Cup implications later this year at Keeneland.

For even the best trainers it can take years to win two Breeders’ Cup races. For D’Angelo it took less than an hour.

Thanksgiving Day racing returns to Del Mar this fall, part of the seaside oval’s 13th Bing Crosby Season that includes 15 stakes races offering $2.1 million in purses and highlighted by the FanDuel Racing Turf Festival.

There’s a possibility of a feat that’s only been accomplished twice in the history of horse racing. Gold Phoenix is making a bid to join the great Kelso and Manikato from Australia as the only horses to ever win the same stakes race five times.

Motorious, an English-bred from the Philip D’Amato barn, will be in search of his fourth straight score in the Green Flash, an unprecedented feat.
