2013 Darley Alcibiades Stakes Race Favorite Entries

My Conquestadory - Mark Casse trainee and daughter of Artie Schiller has just one career start and she decided to make a splash in her debut - she won in impressive style the Grade 2 Summer Stakes at Woodbine September 14. She is one of only two graded stakes winner in the field and has to be considered the favorite as she should be quicker than in her turf debut.

She's Offlee Good - her name suits this Richard Scherer trained filly. Last time out she won the competitive Arlington-Washington Lassie Stakes by two lengths on Polytrack over Sweetsoutherndame and Maria Maria who are entered in the Alcibiades in just her second career start. Her debut was offlee good as well - a MSW score also at Arlington Park August 1. She will have Julien Leparoux in the saddle which should help immensely.
