Friday’s $200,000 Phoenix (G2) at Keeneland will award an expenses-paid berth to the Nov. 7 Breeders’ Cup Sprint (G1) at Keeneland.

Del Mar hosts a double feature Saturday with the $100,000 Shared Belief Stakes, a Road to the Kentucky Derby series prep, and the $250,000 Bing Crosby Stakes (G1), a "Win and You're In" Breeders' Challenge prep for the Breeders' Cup Sprint (G1) at Keeneland in November.

Making just his second start for Asmussen, Woodford Racing's Engage punched his own ticket to the Sprint at Santa Anita with a 9-1 upset victory in the $250,000 Phoenix (G2) before a sun-splashed crowd of 16,427 on opening day of the Keeneland fall meet.
