Stakes winners Coffeewithchris and Prince of Jericho, who battled each other in stakes races throughout the winter and spring, will meet up again for the first time since mid-April in the $100,000 Concern on Saturday at Laurel Park.
Michael Dubb and Morris Bailey’s Prince of Jericho, beaten by Coffeewithchris in his stakes debut last month, avenged that loss by pouncing on the co-favorite at the top of the stretch and steadily drawing away to win Saturday’s $100,000 Spectacular Bid by four lengths at Laurel Park.
Post Time took the $100,000 Maryland Juvenile and Malibu Moonshine won the $100,000 Maryland Juvenile Fillies, both for Maryland-bred/sired horses sprinting seven furlongs Saturday at Laurel Park.
Honeyquist, a son and grandson of juvenile champions, will get a chance to further the family legacy when he faces stakes company for the second straight start in Saturday’s $100,000 James F. Lewis III at Laurel Park.
