By Jarrod Horak

The 2023 Bing Crosby Season is off and running. In this post, I will cover Del Mar stakes recaps for Nov. 10-12 and preview the upcoming second week of the fall meet. 

Del Mar Stakes Recaps (Nov. 10-12)

Let It Ride – Nov. 10 – One mile turf

There was not much drama in this restricted flat mile turf stakes affair. Dandy Man Shines (IRE) was the strong favorite after a relatively fast maiden score in a one mile turf race at Del Mar on Sept. 9. Woodbine shipper Camilo looked like the only real competition on paper, but he seemed to stumble a bit out of the gate and did not get into the right forward spot under Flavien Prat. He stalked inside and was one-paced. Sharp Aza Tack stretched out in distance and took up the running from the inside post. Dandy Man Shines was patient handled under Umberto Rispoli, and he started to advance around the far turn while racing wide. He burst to the front in the lane and was much the best by 2 1/4 lengths. Ah Jeez gained the place over his stablemate Sharp Aza Tack. Calm Sea and Camilo were in the three-way photo for the show but both came up a tad short. Smart Mo stalked and faded to last. Jeff Mullins saddled the winner and he paid $3.60, and he completed his one mile turf journey in 1:34.55.
