Sorrento Stakes at Del Mar

Las Vegas, NV - Looking for a little mid-week graded stakes action? The 44th running of the Grade 3 Sorrento Stakes comes our way this Wednesday, August 8 from Del Mar. Two year old fillies will be featured as they race six and a half furlongs on Del Mar's polytrack surface for a $150,000 purse.

The Sorrento has attracted a large and strong field of nine juveniles for race 7 on Del Mar's Wednesday schedule. Post time is 5:10 PM. Here is a look at the nine entries and what we can expect Wednesday.

2012 Sorrento Stakes Race Favorites

Executiveprivilege - Bob Baffert trained filly is undefeated in two career starts and is the overwhelming favorite for the Sorrento. Executiveprivilege broke maiden with a four and a half length win in a five and a half furlong Maiden Special Weight race at Hollywood Park on June 28 and followed that result with an impressive three and a quarter length win last time out in the Landaluce Stakes. Jockey Rafael Bejarano will attempt to give Bob Baffert his sixth Sorrento Stakes win and has a great chance of doing so on this very fast filly.

Speedinthruthecity - Peter Miller trained filly finished second last time out to Executiveprivilege in the Landaluce Stakes after a maiden win in her debut. Speedinthruthecity is a serious threat in the Sorrento but like the other entries will be chasing Executiveprivilege.
