10 Stakes On the Docket at Golden Gate Fall Meet

[Wandering Eyes]

A total of 10 stakes races will be offered at the 25-day fall meet at Golden Gate Fields which begins Oct. 22 and runs through Dec. 12. The stakes action kicks off Oct. 30 with the Pike Place Dancer S. for 2-year-old turf fillies followed by the $75,000 El Dorado Shooter S. Oct. 31. The El Dorado Shooter is one of two stakes at the fall meet restricted solely for California-bred or sired runners. The other, the $75,000 Bear Fan S., is slated for Dec. 11.  Both California-bred stakes will be run at six furlongs on the Tapeta main track, with the El Dorado Shooter for 3-year-olds and up and the Bear Fan for fillies and mares.

The signature race of the meet–the $100,000 GIII Berkeley H. at one mile and a sixteenth on Tapeta-is scheduled for Nov. 27.

The highlight of the 2-year-old schedule is Nov. 3 The Golden Nugget S., a six-furlong sprint. On Dec. 4, the $75,000 Gold Rush at one mile will attract youngsters who wish to stretch out in distance, while juvenile fillies will be featured in the Nov. 26 $50,000 Golden Gate Debutante at six furlongs.
